Bitcoin’s corporate adoption is increasingly resembling the “nationalization path” of gold leading up to 1971, presenting a new centralization concern, according to Willy Woo.
Corporate Bitcoin treasuries have surged past $100 billion, raising concerns among analysts that the United States could one day nationalize these holdings in a move reminiscent of the gold standard era.
Corporate crypto treasuries have surpassed $100 billion of digital asset holdings, with Bitcoin (BTC) treasury firms amassing 791,662 BTC worth about $93 billion, representing 3.98% of the circulating supply, Cointelegraph reported on July 31.
The growing corporate holdings may present a new centralized point of vulnerability for Bitcoin, which may see the world’s first cryptocurrency follow the same “nationalization path” as gold in 1971, according to crypto analyst Willy Woo.
