Wu said no more. Obvious bulls. Markets collapse on entry into Bitcoin. Prior to the New Era, he believed Bitcoin was in its 'end cycle'.
Take on the biggest "challenge"
But everything has its advantages and disadvantages.
First of all, there has always been a difference between demons and angels in the analysis of Bitcoin, and the attitudes of governments and rulers at different levels are also very different.
Recently, former President Donald Trump warned that investing in cryptocurrencies could be "catastrophic for the future" and that "I am not a big fan of cryptocurrencies". He thinks that investing in cryptocurrencies "makes the US money."

Second, the recent popularity of Ethereum has overtaken Bitcoin and is becoming a new hot spot for crypto investors.
The reason Pal says this is because ETH has a wide range of applications related to manufacturing, NFTs, and manufacturing.

Additionally, with the advent of ETH2.0, Ethereum can grow exponentially. However, due to the increase in price, most Bitcoin holders prefer to hold it for a long time. BTC can serve as the basis for global currencies, but other cryptocurrencies can serve the same purpose.
