Odaily Planet Daily News Wealth Management Group Kingswood's Rupert Thompson believes that Bitcoin is still not a suitable investment for mainstream portfolios, as its speculative nature makes it susceptible to significant price fluctuations. He stated that Bitcoin exhibits "extreme volatility, and this price fluctuation is driven purely by speculation, rather than any concept of intrinsic value." Since Trump's victory in the U.S. election, Bitcoin has been the biggest winner, but it is important to remember that following its significant rise in 2021 and 2022, it has experienced substantial declines over the course of a month or two. However, Thompson noted that Bitcoin "is no longer a niche investment as it once was." (investing)
