Investing in the Future: Why Crypto Outshines Traditional Assets
This is 2025, and I am sure that by now, more than half of the Earth's population has heard of cryptocurrency, even if they don't know how it works. However, they should have at least heard the word cryptocurrency. Everyone wants to be an investor, as the main goal of an investor is to put money into a particular business or investment that, in the end, will bring profit in return to the capital, which is the money put into the business. The primary goal for many people is to earn money or double their resources, thereby increasing their wealth in the long run.
There are different ways for people to invest their money in order to gain profit, such as buying shares or important assets that will be profitable in the future. I came across a video sometime ago about people lining up to purchase gold as an investment. Gold is one of the world's most precious natural resources and has been part of the end since the dawn of creation. Nations have gone to war because of gold, and true be told, some countries are still under siege because of these natural resources to this day.
It was illegal gold mining, corruption and the small revenue obtained from these mines that caused a coup in Burkina Faso which resulted in the military regime. Gold is a valuable asset, but we are in times now that even cryptocurrency has more value than what gold offers in the financial sector for investment. It didn't take long after that long queue for people willing to purchase gold items and keep them as valuable as the price of gold fell by 6 per cent, which was the highest drop since 2013.
It just shows how little by little the goal is losing value and I am not disputing the fact that the price could still increase in the coming weeks or months, but it's time more people start seeing cryptocurrency as a better investment than some natural resources. Oil is another natural resource that could lose its value in the coming years as we are seeing day by day how countries are innovating with the use of clean energy to stop the consumption of oil.
It is a good innovation as it is helping the environment, and for some weeks now, I have been seeing reports on X about how the ozone layer is quickly repairing itself, which is a good thing for the planet. What I am getting at is pretty simple: cryptocurrency has become a multiple-billion-dollar industry, has changed so many lives and is still taking effect to this day. A good example will be the Hive Ghana water project.
Getting the value for your investment is much better in this space as it grows with time and gives you more value. I hope more people can see the big picture of what cryptocurrency can do in the long run and come into this space. So that will be all for now. Thanks for stopping by and have a good day.
