Bitcoin is entering its most explosive phase yet. Advisors who once called Bitcoin risky are now urging 10–40% portfolio allocations. Trump's cabinet is stacked with Bitcoin supporters.

With only 5% of the world owning Bitcoin and supply forever capped at 21 million, the next wave could change everything. As Saylor warns, “In 21 years, you'll wish you bought more.”SPONSORS✅ Lednhttps://learn.ledn.io/simplySimply Bitcoin clients get 0.25% off their first loanNeed liquidity without selling your Bitcoin?
