    Are Bitcoin & Crypto Now Mainstream? with Mark Biller

    MoneyWise on Oneplace.com

    Play Episode Listen Later Jun 24, 2025 24:57


    A crypto enthusiast once wrote on Reddit, “Bitcoin is like winning the lottery in slow motion.” That might be a stretch, but one thing's clear: Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies aren't going anywhere. Today, Mark Biller joins us to unpack how crypto is moving into the mainstream and what that means for investors trying to make wise decisions.Mark Biller is Executive Editor and Senior Portfolio Manager at Sound Mind Investing, an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Two Big Takeaways for Crypto InvestorsHere are two key insights to help investors make sense of today's crypto market:Bitcoin Stands Apart – It's critical to understand that Bitcoin is not like the rest of the crypto world. It has emerged as a unique and dominant force, with widespread adoption, while other cryptocurrencies remain highly speculative. Bitcoin Has Reached Critical Mass – Thanks to regulatory shifts and institutional adoption, Bitcoin seems to be here to stay. In just a few years, we've gone from government hostility toward crypto to SEC-approved Bitcoin ETFs and even a pro-crypto administration in the White House.Bitcoin was the original cryptocurrency, launched in 2008, and today it represents about 60% of the entire crypto market. It's gained institutional interest and widespread regulatory acceptance. By contrast, the remaining 40% of the crypto universe is fragmented, filled with thousands of projects, many of which will not survive.Think of most other cryptos not as currencies but as startup tech ventures. That helps frame their high risk and their potential for failure. Bitcoin, meanwhile, has arrived. The rest? They're still trying to prove themselves.Bitcoin as an Investment: What's Changed?Many early Bitcoin advocates hoped it would serve as a usable currency outside of traditional financial systems. But that vision has mostly faded. Today, most investors treat Bitcoin like digital gold—a store of value designed to hedge against inflation and the devaluation of fiat currencies.It's volatile, yes. But its built-in scarcity (only 21 million bitcoins will ever exist) appeals to those who fear government overreach or reckless monetary policy. Bitcoin's not just for tech enthusiasts anymore—it's becoming a strategic asset for serious investors.Generational preferences also shape Bitcoin's rise. Younger investors, raised in a digital world of apps and virtual marketplaces, are far more comfortable with digital assets. What gold has long been to older generations, Bitcoin is becoming to younger ones: a hedge against inflation and a symbol of financial independence.In fact, Bitcoin's correlation with gold has grown significantly in recent years, signaling that institutions are viewing it in similar terms.Institutions and Even Nations Are Paying AttentionIt's not just individuals diving into Bitcoin. Global events—especially the 2022 freezing of Russian reserve assets—have prompted many nations to reassess their reliance on U.S. Treasury bonds. The result? A surge in gold buying by central banks, and increasing openness to alternatives like Bitcoin among private investors.While governments aren't yet buying Bitcoin, there's reasonable evidence to suggest that gold investors are starting to “skate to where the puck is going,” diversifying small portions of their portfolios into Bitcoin as a forward-looking strategy.With that being said, should we be concerned about the global shift away from U.S. treasuries?Not immediately. While a shift away from U.S. Treasuries could eventually raise interest rates and borrowing costs, the dollar still holds dominant status in global transactions. But it's a trend worth watching. It's a slow-motion problem—more of a simmer than a flashpoint.So…Should You Invest in Bitcoin?It depends. Investors with a strong risk tolerance and a positive outlook on gold might allocate a small portion (less than 5%) of their portfolio to Bitcoin or Bitcoin ETF's. The key is position sizing—keeping it small due to Bitcoin's extreme volatility.However, we want to be crystal clear: this only applies to Bitcoin, not to the rest of the crypto space, which still carries a high risk of going to zero.If you're curious to explore more, check out the full article, Bitcoin (& Crypto) Go Mainstream: What You Need To Know, at SoundMindInvesting.org. The SMI team also offers a Bitcoin-inclusive ETF for those looking to dip a toe into this asset class as part of a broader, biblically informed strategy.At the end of the day, financial stewardship isn't about chasing trends—it's about making wise, measured decisions rooted in truth. And with the right knowledge, even complex topics like crypto can be approached with confidence.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I currently have about $1 million in an active 401(k) with a major financial institution. I'd like to transfer those existing funds to another custodian, where I can earn a guaranteed interest rate. However, I also want to continue contributing to my current 401(k) through my employer, taking on more investment risk with those new contributions. Is that possible?My husband and I live with my father-in-law, and the house needs some repairs. He's offered to loan us the money from his retirement account to cover the costs, but he's asking us to help pay the taxes he would owe on the distribution. Is that a wise arrangement?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Bitcoin (& Crypto) Go Mainstream: What You Need To Know by Mark Biller (Sound Mind Investing Article)Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

We’re already mourning the novelty and surprise of what might be available today! Vibes:Britt - Punter’s Politics Laura -Feel Better, Live More Podcast - How To Future-Proof Your Brain: with Dr Daniel Amen Keeshia - Nonnas on Netflix Then we jump into your questions!TO WHAT EXTENT ARE WEDDING JITTERS NORMAL?Since getting engaged 7 months ago I have dreamt multiple times a week about an ex “situationship” from about 10 years ago! My fiancé and I have been together for over 6 years and lived together for 5 so getting married shouldn’t really feel that different. I love my fiancé and it hurts my heart to think of not being with him, but I also feel a little bit of a pit in my stomach when I think of the wedding which is in August. Is this just wedding nerves? I feel like I may have some commitment issues as I’ve never had a long relationship before this one. I also don’t love being the centre of attention so could this be contributing? Is this just a normal reaction before such a big commitment? I guess that’s why they joke about people getting cold feet before a wedding but I never thought that was real. Would love your opinions please x BF DOESN’T WANT TO GO DOWN ON ME BECAUSE OF OCDHi guys! I have a dilemma. I love when my partner goes down on me butttt because I am so comfortable with him I fart, poop, and pull out tampons in front of him. He has pretty much seen it all. We have been together for 4 years. He has diagnosed OCD, especially around cleanliness and because he has seen what he has seen, he doesn’t like to go down on me, even when I’ve suggested doing it as soon as we have had a shower. Is this something you think we can work on or do I have to find alternatives (toys)? Please give me your best advice. PARTNER SPENT 6K ON ROBLOX - HELPMy partner and I’ve been together 3 years and I love him more than anyone. When we first started dating he had a slight pokies issue and was completely transparent with it. Together we worked that habit out and he stopped gambling on pokies; he played poker once a week and has been fine. However, last night I went into his phone when he was asleep to see where he’s been spending money after he made a comment about being tight for money. I looked and there were 3 Roblox transactions for over $100 each from the weekend. So, today I logged into his account and went through all the transactions. I’ve worked out that since January he has spent over $6k on this stupid game, and he’s been lying about it. He said he didn’t get paid enough this week to get his savings out etc but in reality, he has been spending it on Roblox. I need advice because this is so fucking childish. I do realise it’s a deeper problem than playing games, it’s an addiction and I want to help him but how do I confront him about it? I just want what’s best for him. For context: we don’t share a bank account for these reasons. I am money savvy and a good saver and he is the absolute opposite. OPINION ON MARKETPLACE GIFTS?Can you buy someone something from Marketplace secondhand because that way you can actually afford it and you know that they’ll love it? Or can you give someone something that you have owned? For context, it’s my niece's 1st birthday coming up where we would normally spend $100–$150 on the gift. We were about to sell something that is hardly used by our 2 year old. The RRP is $260 but they sell for $200 on Marketplace. Can you do that? Or is that super tight? Then if you can do it, do you tell them it’s secondhand or just palm it off as bought?

    Protests in Southern California and around the country over raids targeting undocumented immigrants played out differently on social media depending on the person or the platform. They're peaceful - look at the carnival atmosphere. They're violent - Los Angeles is in flames. These competing narratives underline the hyper-siloed nature of online discourse and the power of misinformation. Marketplace's Nova Safo spoke with Renee DiResta, Research Professor at Georgetown University about how protest discourse has been playing out online.

    HIS WEEK ON CODE WACK! As federal officials carry out large-scale, military-style raids and widespread arrests of undocumented immigrants, another fight is quietly brewing — one that could push thousands of people off their health insurance. More than half a million young people who were brought to the U.S. as children and grew up here could soon lose eligibility for affordable and subsidized health coverage. A new rule proposed by the Trump Administration would once again block DACA recipients from buying Marketplace insurance or receiving financial assistance. What would this mean for their health, their communities and the widening gap in health and economic equity? To find out, we spoke with Kristin McGuire, Executive Director of Young Invincibles — the nation's largest young adult policy and advocacy organization — where she leads the charge to amplify the voices of young adults in the political process.

    Very few men think of relationships in the frame of the “sexual marketplace,” although the rules and principles of attraction and connection can very much be understood as an economic model, of sorts, of perceived value. And, the man who offers the most perceived value, is the man who gets the girl. Whether you're married or single, understanding the intricacies and nuance of what makes a man attractive to a woman will help him get more of what he wants from her. My guest today, psychologist Orion Taraban joins me to discuss these dynamics between men and women so we all get more of what we're after in relationships. We cover the importance of knowing your value and knowing what is valuable to the opposite sex, why love has little or nothing to do with attraction, what is known as the “Madonna-Whore Complex,” the concepts of Captains and Passengers as it relates to dating and mating, the difference between talking and communicating, and how best to make yourself more attractive.
