比特币背后总是有大牌，而且——为什么不呢？
根据 MicroStrategy 创始人 Michael Saylor 的说法，从长远来看，比特币作为一种投资的出现可能预示着黄金作为一种资产类别的终结。
Saylor 是 MicroStrategy 即将离任的首席执行官，也是一位加密货币牛市，他在去年 12 月提出了这一说法。
快进八个月：在周六接受 Stansberry Research 采访时，Saylor 表示，由于加密货币（尤其是比特币）的兴起，贵金属肯定会经历“妖魔化”。
随着加密货币越来越受欢迎，一些支持者认为它最终可能会取代黄金作为一种保值手段，并取代黄金。
尽管当前存在市场危机，但著名的加密货币投资者坚持认为，比特币取代黄金的预测仍在轨道上。
“唯一受到比特币威胁的是黄金，”Saylor 在最近的雅虎财经直播讨论中说道。
Saylor 直言不讳地谈到了黄金：
“你能做的最明智的事情就是卖掉所有 10 万亿美元的黄金并投资比特币。黄金是一块死石头。这是表现最差的资产，毫无争议。没有希望了。”

然而，塞勒承认，代币取代黄金的旅程将以某些“高潮和低谷”为标志。有趣的是，这位亿万富翁表示，与黄金不同，比特币更有可能被更多国家接受为货币。
美国亿万富翁投资者和对冲基金经理雷·达里奥 (Ray Dalio) 同意塞勒的观点。他在去年五月透露：
“我只拥有少量比特币。 我不是大股东，”达里奥告诉 CNBC Make It。 “你想购买特定资产来分散你的投资组合，而 BTC 类似于数字黄金。”
与黄金不同，Saylor 认为加密货币更有可能被更多司法管辖区接受为货币。
他说：
“传统的反对者和主流专家不了解加密经济、比特币或波动性……随着时间的推移，加密最终将使黄金非货币化。”换句话说，Saylor 认为黄金不会被“用作 21 世纪的货币”。
BTC 的市值经常与黄金进行比较。在撰写本文时，比特币 市值为 4600 亿美元，与截至今年 3 月 2 日的黄金总市值 12.3 万亿美元相去甚远。
与此同时，在 MicroStrategy 遭受重大损失后，Saylor 受到了抨击。该公司今年前六个月的季度收入为 1.22 亿美元，而预期为 1.26 亿美元。
此外，MicroStrategy 损失了 9.19 亿美元，其中 9.17 亿美元与其数字货币投资有关。
