Peer-to-peer payment, similar to "digital silver coins", is considered a supplement to Bitcoin's "digital gold".

The bull market for cryptocurrencies in 2024 seems to be dominated by BTC, with BTC rising 3% and altcoins rising 1%; when BTC drops 1%, altcoins drop 3%. This situation will still be the case in 2025. Whether the U.S. will treat BTC as a strategic reserve next year depends on the policies after Trump’s inauguration on January 20. Once the policy is implemented, BTC will soar like it's on a winning streak. Conversely, regions under political and financial sanctions will buy in crazily at around $90,000. Therefore, the bull market in 2025 will not only continue but will also feature major waves.
Only those altcoins that have undergone 1 or 2 cycles of popularity testing will rise high. I believe they will dance in harmony with BTC, along with AI and technology.
