Bitcoin And The Economy<\/h2>\n

SEC chairman Gary Gensler has raised some concerns regarding bitcoin and the U.S. economy. According to the SEC boss, BTC is now a competitor to the U.S. banking system. Gensler said this on Wednesday when speaking to former SEC chairman Jay Clayton at the DACOM Summit 2021<\/a> about the role of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, and ETFs in the economy.<\/p>\n

Gensler, during this summit, said that Bitcoin had been created as a reaction to sanctions and regimes that went into place across the globe. He referred to BTC as \u201can off-the-grid type of approach\u201d.<\/p>\n

This refers to the completely decentralized nature of BTC. Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, had structured the asset in a way that it couldn\u2019t be replicated or controlled by a single entity.<\/p>\n

Why BTC Is Becoming Mainstream<\/h2>\n

The deflationary nature of Bitcoin has been one of the most important things for investors who bought the asset. Coupled with its impressive returns on investment, the asset had made for a perfect hedge against inflation. Thus becoming a more popular investment avenue in the financial world.<\/p>\n
