One of the major trends in recent years has been for companies to buy #Bitcoin to hold on their balance sheets.
But this model can lead to increased volatility in times of market stress, as some companies may be forced to sell #Bitcoin to secure liquidity or maintain their financial structure.
This suggests that when #Bitcoin enters the traditional financial framework , the debt and leverage structures of Wall Street, it also brings with it some of the weaknesses of that system.
But this is a natural step in #Bitcoin’s maturation. Ultimately, #Bitcoin’s goal is not to be just a reserve asset on corporate balance sheets or collateral for the old financial system; it is to become money itself and the main basis of exchange.
Moving from keeping #Bitcoin in the old system to building a Bitcoin-based economy is a process that will become the new norm over time.
