I‘m at a finance event in Vienna today. A guy is showing his VC portfolio. His average yearly performance is at 14.8%. He asked if someone knows a better asset class? I said #Bitcoin. I was told to shut up from now on…
I think the ECB is confusing the Euro and #Bitcoin
One is the best performing asset in the last decade that offers anyone in the world to participate in.
The other is a failed currency led by incompetent criminals who profit from our tax-paying money.
Bitcoin has failed to become a global decentralised digital currency, instead falling victim to fraud and manipulation.
The recent approval of an ETF doesn’t change the fact that Bitcoin is costly, slow and inconvenient, argues #TheECBBlogecb.europa.eu/press/blog/dat…

Chainalysis found that only 0.34% of the transaction volume with cryptocurrencies in 2023 was attributable to criminal activity. Bitcoin's share of this is significantly lower with 25%. Illicit transactions with Euros accounted for 1% of the EU's GDP or €110 billion in 2010.
