BTC directional thesis
Dalio rejects the digital-gold thesis: Bitcoin lacks privacy, central banks won't hold it, and it trades like a high-beta tech stock rather than a safe haven, so it loses the money race to gold. The stake is that Bitcoin keeps underperforming gold and behaving as a risk asset.
“In the same period that gold's climbed 80% since we last talked, Bitcoin's down 25%... Bitcoin does not have privacy... Central banks are not going to want to buy Bitcoin... It tends to have a a pretty high correlation with the tech stocks... as a money, you know, it's small in relationship to gold... There is only one gold.”20:53claim_id
