Is Gold or Bitcoin the Real Currency? Expert Analyst Explains Why

Cryptocurrency analyst Fred Krueger has made a bold statement, claiming that gold is on its way to becoming obsolete in the face of Bitcoin’s growing dominance.

Nobody uses gold as a medium of exchange. That makes Bitcoin Lightning look good,” he said. Krueger suggested that the United States sell its gold reserves and invest in Bitcoin instead. Echoing Bitcoin advocate Samson Mow, Krueger argued that such a move would initially strengthen the dollar but would eventually pave the way for Bitcoin to replace fiat currencies. *This is not investment advice.
