Bitcoin's Resilience Compared to Stocks

Bitcoin has been available for trading for more total hours than traditional stocks, reflecting its resilience in a constantly evolving market. Since its inception, Bitcoin trades 24/7, with approximately 123,000 hours of trading compared to the stock market's 100,000 hours since 1971. This continuous operation allows Bitcoin to respond to global events in real-time, unlike the stock market, which can close and leave investors without access to their investments. The cumulative trading hours indicate that Bitcoin has been tested more thoroughly than the fiat stock market, suggesting its robustness and global accessibility.
