Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder and former CEO of Binance, has predicted that governments worldwide will likely officially adopt Bitcoin, the world’s leading cryptocurrency, within the next decade. This bold statement envisions Bitcoin evolving from a digital asset into a cornerstone of the global financial system.

According to ZCrypto on Sunday, CZ emphasized in an interview that Bitcoin is becoming the “currency of the future,” attracting substantial capital inflows. He argued that widespread Bitcoin adoption would fuel the cryptocurrency market’s growth and bring positive changes to the broader economy and financial landscape.

CZ highlighted Bitcoin’s potential to serve as a national reserve asset, suggesting it could help countries navigate macroeconomic challenges such as rising debt and financial instability.

He noted that discussions about adopting Bitcoin as a reserve asset are gaining momentum, particularly as the U.S. presidential election approaches. He contended that Bitcoin could be pivotal in addressing national debt issues and improving cross-border trade by streamlining financial transactions.

CZ added that the U.S.’s official endorsement of Bitcoin could trigger a domino effect, prompting other nations to follow suit. He observed that Bitcoin’s price has exhibited a strong upward trajectory following the election cycle, emerging from a correction phase.

Currently trading above $100,000, active institutional investor participation supports Bitcoin’s market resilience.

CZ underscored Bitcoin’s potential to replace gold as the ultimate store of value, attributing its growing “digital gold” status to key attributes such as scarcity, portability, and accessibility.

He contrasted this with gold, pointing out uncertainties surrounding its total supply, which changes can influence mining rates.

CZ explained that unlike gold, whose supply can be controlled by adjusting mining rates, Bitcoin has a fixed supply. He emphasized that this characteristic enhances Bitcoin’s value proposition.

Bitcoin’s current market capitalization is approximately $2 trillion, making it the seventh-largest asset globally. Looking ahead, CZ projected that Bitcoin’s market value could exceed $16 trillion, solidifying its role in global finance.

Such optimistic outlooks are not new. In 2021, Michael Saylor, CEO of MicroStrategy, discussed Bitcoin’s potential to supplant gold and anticipated its adoption as a reserve asset at both corporate and governmental levels. Saylor highlighted Bitcoin’s advantages over gold, emphasizing its reliability, fixed supply, and superior functionality.
