Most people who read about cryptocurrencies know that Bitcoin, due to its characteristics, is often referred to as ‘digital gold.’ A new study reveals that more and more people in the U.S. prefer Bitcoin to gold.

The second point notes that one-fifth of Americans allocate over 30% of their investment in crypto. And, finally, third–nearly 52% of responders admitted they were selling gold or stocks to invest in Bitcoin.
The latter revelation illustrates the tectonic shift in people’s minds. Over half of all respondents believe now that Bitcoin is here to stay, and it is safer and probably
