Economists at the European Central Bank warned in a new report that the continued rise in Bitcoin prices will lead to a redistribution of social wealth, ultimately impoverishing most members of society. The report emphasizes that Bitcoin's investment model is a "zero-sum game" in which wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few early holders, while the rest of society will bear the corresponding economic costs. In the long run, it may endanger social cohesion, stability, and even threaten democratic systems. Economists believe that Satoshi Nakamoto's original idea of ​​Bitcoin as a global payment system has largely failed. (TheBlock)
