There was never spoken a need to invest in crypto currency, I suggested a minimum allocation of 5% to cryptocurrency, the need to invest in cryptocurrency will be later when you have to have it to transact in the Defi space.
Bitcoin has an advantage as a currency because the production of the currency is limited. It is the base that allows the other Crypto tokens to be able to be utilized in the digital space. In the early phase yes, Bitcoin was a speculative venture, but at over a trillion it is fast becoming the backbone of a rapidly growing system. Because of the speed and the infrastructure being built around the crypto currency the ability to transact in the digital finance world is going to be the need for one to hold assets with value in the crypto space. And Bitcoin with it's size is doing that, #2 is Ether because it is the backbone for the Apps in the digital space.
This is obviously a growing space, which is why the richest corporations and individuals in the last 12 months are becoming adopters. With a limited number of bitcoin the price will have to increase in order to accomadate increasing transactions. There will no doubt be busts along the way, but this is the future, the present debt world is broken and being maintained by not allowing interest on any savings.
If one is looking for intrinisc value in a world where the world's reserve currency can be expanded in to support 150% more spending via printing than revenue generated by taxpayers, it is clear to me why Bitcoin is becoming clearer over time.
Already, art and artists have begun the transition, which is why Mike Wiklemnan had the third highest value ever recorded by a living artist when he sold his Everydays, First 5000 days for 69 million dollars in cryptocurrency.
Doubters of Crypto currency have been vocal here since bitcoin was under $100 and claiming it held no intrinsic value all the way up. The value is it's rarity, transparency in transactions, and the inability to counterfeit. Interest rates have to stay low in the intrinsic value world because there is so much debt they cannot be allowed to float to the fair market value, so Central Banks are buying most of the worlds debt and providing money in exchange. This money is flowing into cryptocurrency, where there is no control for the central banks to hold and interest rates will flow to the rate needed.
