Whether Bitcoin goes to 25 or 55, the reason that I think it's fundamentally worth it is because I understand what the tech gives capacity and ability to do. Bitcoin provides a trustless, permissionless financial escape hatch for individuals facing high inflation or hostile regimes. As global monetary systems show weakness, this utility creates a hard floor and long-term appreciation for the asset, independent of short-term price action. LONG. It is a 10 to 20-year generational wealth preservation asset that bypasses traditional financial controls. Quantum computing advancements could theoretically break the Elliptical Curve Cryptography (ECC) used in Bitcoin wallets, exposing early wallets to theft.

The data centers for inference have to be really, really close to the place that you're actually going to do the inference... they're land focused and have been land focused for 15 to 20 years. Bitcoin miners that have already secured physical land and massive power contracts are perfectly positioned to pivot into AI data centers. The infrastructure required for the upcoming AGI tech boom is highly constrained by power availability, making these legacy mining assets incredibly valuable. LONG. These companies are transitioning from volatile crypto mining plays into highly lucrative, infrastructure-backed AI data center plays. The AI infrastructure build-out could face regulatory hurdles regarding power consumption, or the companies may fail to secure the necessary AI inference contracts.
