This is published by a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments.
Investors should hold two distinctly separate frameworks for considering investment in this digital
asset ecosystem. The first framework examines the inclusion of bitcoin as an emerging monetary
good, and the second considers the addition of other digital assets that exhibit venture capital-like
properties.
Sounds familiar

Also, regarding Bitcoin vs cryptocurrencies in general. My mental model of the cryptocurrency world is that Bitcoin is like gold, almost an unchangeable elemental commodity, and other cryptocurrencies are like individual stocks, being under development, having a leader, etc.
As such, I would never hold ethereum in a PP because there's no chance of it becoming the world's reserve currency. When Harry was unsure of the dollar's future, he held Swiss Francs, not duPont.

If governments could ban/ control Bitcoin then it wouldn’t be a tool for freedom. (FYI, they know this ….prepare accordingly). Remember…..the world economy (governments) now compete for peoples wealth. Wealth is liquidious (with BTC) and will flow to the path of least resistance…countries will compete for your wealth within their borders.

When a tool is banned, it doesn't stop being a tool. People who recognize the value of the tool will continue using it. The government might even change its mind.
For example, consider the war on drugs. Cannabis, MDMA, Psilocybin were banned but people kept using them. Now the science is catching up and it turns out that the war on drugs needlessly extended the suffering of millions of people with chronic pain, PTSD, and depression.

I'm not sure. It's interesting that Senators like Cynthia Lummis and Ted Cruz are going to bat for Bitcoin even though many of us expect it to replace the $USD as the world's reserve currency.
