Introduction

Bitcoin as a Safe Haven

Comparing Bitcoin to Gold

Dave the Wave compares Bitcoin to gold, stating that it will come to function just as gold does for the big money, serving as macro insurance. He notes that Bitcoin's market cap is currently far below gold's market cap of $13 trillion, but he expects BTC to approach that level in the future.

Current Market Status

At the time of writing, Bitcoin has a market cap of $672 billion and is trading at $34,414.
