James, an anonymous server of the crypto-focused YouTube channel InvestAnswers and a crypto analyst, made a noteworthy statement about Bitcoin (BTC). According to James, in the medium and long term, BTC will surpass gold and silver, which are considered safe haven assets worldwide.
“Bitcoin is More Reliable Than Gold and Silver”
James, an anonymous crypto analyst, stated that BTC is expected to surpass both gold and silver in terms of market value in the medium and long term. The analyst emphasized that Bitcoin cannot be easily manipulated like precious metals and said the following:
I have received many questions about this topic, and whether the paper versions of Bitcoin can affect the real-world prices. Can paper Bitcoin hinder price appreciation? Here, the difference between Bitcoin and gold becomes evident.
With gold, it is difficult to know if the paper representation of gold actually has real gold behind it, making things riskier. However, it is much easier to prove and verify such a situation in Bitcoin, which makes it more reliable.
“Silver is No Longer a Safe Haven Asset”
According to the analyst, silver is no longer a safe haven asset, and the transparency that Bitcoin possesses in terms of price could lead to better performance than gold in the future. The analyst suggested that this change could occur within the next ten years:
Believe me, forget about the other 20 advantages that Bitcoin has over gold, put them aside. I believe that Bitcoin will surpass gold in the next 8 to 10 years because everything on this side is verifiable.
Therefore, I know that there are many people who have concerns about paper and manipulation, such as JPMorgan and BlackRock, but this is not the case for Bitcoin because everything can be easily verified.
