Bitcoin: The gold of the digital age
Bitcoin is the oldest, largest and by far the best-known cryptocurrency in the world.
The Bitcoin blockchain – completely independent of banks and governments – is not only the first and largest, but is also considered the most secure blockchain in the world due to its strong decentralization. The performance is no less impressive:
At the end of 2019, CNN named Bitcoin by far the best investment class of the past decade, with the price of a Bitcoin increasing 200,000 times during this time alone!
The Bitcoin price results exclusively from supply and demand, whereby Bitcoin, unlike our common paper money systems, is inflation-proof: The supply is limited to 21 million Bitcoins, which are expected to be produced by 2140 and demand is steadily increasing.
Against this background, short-term forecasts of between 90,000 and 500,000 USD per Bitcoin are increasing, and in the longer term, rates in the multi-digit million range are even spoken of.
On the whole, the Bitcoin price has only known one direction so far: up. In the past, however, this path was peppered with strong price fluctuations, which makes investing directly in Bitcoin, despite the overall more than positive price development, a big risk for many investors.
Wouldn’t it therefore make sense, instead of speculating on the unpredictable, short-term price movements, to simply produce bitcoins yourself and to build up a large number of bitcoins in the medium to long term?
