Jerome Powell just dropped an interesting take on Bitcoin's role in the financial system. The Fed Chair positioned BTC as a competitor to gold rather than a threat to the dollar's dominance.



This framing matters more than people realize. By comparing Bitcoin to gold, Powell's essentially acknowledging it as a store of value—not a currency replacement. It's a subtle but significant shift in how traditional finance views digital assets.

The narrative is changing. When central bankers start putting Bitcoin in the same category as precious metals, you know institutional perception is evolving. Whether you're bullish or skeptical, this kind of regulatory commentary shapes market sentiment.

Powell's rhetoric this time is pretty good; he's aligning BTC with gold. It looks like a concession, but in reality, he's giving it a recognized status.

Powell's remarks this time are indeed interesting—comparing to gold but not to the dollar; there’s more to his intentions than meets the eye.

Damn, Powell's move is really brilliant, pushing BTC closer to gold... This is an indirect form of recognition.

Powell's recent remarks are actually endorsing BTC; comparing it to gold is much more realistic than comparing it to the US dollar.

Powell’s move was truly smart—by aligning BTC more closely with gold, he managed to stabilize the dollar’s dominance. Absolutely brilliant.

Ha, has Powell finally come around? Gold and Bitcoin get the same treatment, but I’ve already done the math on this trade—when you look at it from the annualized yield perspective, they’re totally different things.
