There is great debate about gold versus bitcoin. This was taken to another level with the introduction of Bitcoin Spot ETFs. In the past month, more than $10 billion has flowed in.
In this video I discuss the idea of bitcoin as a reserve, the benefits of it, and how it could displace gold in this role.

This is a very interesting topic. I agree with what you have said about BTC as a replacement for Gold and how it is better. But I don't know if it will happen any time soon. I think a lot of banks and big corporations have invested too much into gold for them to let it happen. Who is going to catch all the gold once that happens. But it will be a scary scenario to think about, since a lot of countries in the Middle East rely on the value of gold.
They could easily switch to BTC. And we honestly have no idea if sovereign wealth funds have invested in it yet.
It will be interesting to watch.
I have no idea how easy it is for them to switch to BTC. If there is a mass movement, who will be the one ending up with all the gold that might be worth less because of the lower demand?
Gold is no different than anything else...supply and demand. Yes a decline in demand could affect prices but it could be in different ways than you describe.
We will see gold run as the threat of war approaches and confidence in gov't collapses. Post 2024 could see a nice run in gold for that reason.
That makes sense. I guess that run up could make some companies sell a few, and increase their BTC holdings.
With treasuries whether companies or sovereign wealth funds they tend not to play the markets. They buy and HODL. If they decide to move on from gold, they will do it. I dont think companies have much in gold but central banks and sovereign funds do. They could divest out of gold into BTC.
It might take some time for the acceptance at that level. I have a feeling some of the recent decisions like the accounting standards in the US changing and the Spot ETF add legitimacy to the holding of it.

Task suggests that Bitcoin could potentially displace gold as the preferred asset for treasuries due to the ease of storage, transfer, and elimination of risks associated with physical assets like gold. He argues that institutions may start leveraging Bitcoin on their balance sheets due to its ease of verification and lack of transportation issues. Task also touches on the trust factor of Bitcoin over altcoins like Litecoin and Bcash, emphasizing the unique properties of Bitcoin that make it a more viable option for institutional reserves.
Detailed Article:
Taskmaster4450 starts the video by addressing the recent surge in Bitcoin ETFs. He mentions that $10 billion has been invested in these funds within a month of approval by the SEC, indicating a significant trend towards embracing these products. This leads him to discuss the potential future of Bitcoin in comparison to gold. Despite not being a huge fan of Bitcoin in the traditional sense, Task believes that Bitcoin may eventually outshine gold as a reserve asset due to its unique properties.
One of the main points Task elaborates on is the inefficiencies of using gold as a reserve asset, pointing out issues with storage, security, and transportation associated with physical assets. In contrast, he emphasizes the ease of storing, transferring, and verifying Bitcoin, making it a more attractive option for institutions, central banks, and sovereign wealth funds.
Moreover, Task touches on the limitations of gold in the modern digital age, comparing it to the outdated reliance on the Pony Express in the email era. He argues that Bitcoin's digital nature aligns better with the current technological landscape, making it a more suitable choice for reserves. He also delves into the trust factor, highlighting that Bitcoin's properties are hard to replicate, unlike altcoins such as Litecoin or Bcash.
Furthermore, Task discusses how institutions could leverage Bitcoin on their balance sheets, something that is not easily achievable with gold due to the lack of efficient verification methods. He mentions the increasing acceptance of Bitcoin through measures like the Bitcoin spot ETF and regulatory changes, making it a viable option for institutional investment.
In conclusion, Taskmaster4450 closes the video by speculating on the possibility of major corporations like Apple, Facebook, or Amazon entering the Bitcoin space and including it in their reserves. He leaves the viewers with food for thought on the potential future of Bitcoin as a reserve asset and the advantages it offers over traditional assets like gold.
