Changpeng Zhao, who recently returned to Dubai after his legal challenges in the U.S., offered a unique viewpoint on Bitcoinโs rising value. While others congratulated him on his Bitcoin gains, CZ remained grounded, explaining, โI havenโt made much. I still hold the same amount of Bitcoin, but everything around me has become cheaper.โ His comment underscores the deflationary impact Bitcoin could have on purchasing power, suggesting that, despite the soaring price of Bitcoin, other assets may seem more affordable in comparison.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong also weighed in on Bitcoinโs incredible growth, drawing attention to its past performance. Reflecting on Bitcoinโs early days, Armstrong stated that if someone had invested in Bitcoin back in 2012, when Coinbase launched, their $100 investment would be worth over $1.5 million today. He contrasted this with the current state of traditional currency, which has seen its purchasing power eroded by inflation. Armstrong further emphasized Bitcoinโs status as the best-performing asset of the last decade, suggesting that the world is still in the early stages of its financial revolution. He called on nations, especially those battling inflation, to build Bitcoin reserves to protect their economic futures.
