Jeff Currie: BTC je bolj kot baker, manj kot zlato

Jeff Currie – the global head of commodities research at Goldman Sachs – believes that the idea of bitcoin serving as the digital form of gold is a little misguided. In fact, he claims bitcoin is more of an alternative to copper.

Jeff Currie misli, da je ideja o BTC-ju digitalna, saj je zlato malo

Že vrsto let slišimo argument, da je bitcoin "digitalno zlato". To, da je orodje za varovanje pred tveganji in zaloga bogastva, kot je zlato, je in lahko potencialno zaščiti lastno bogastvo pred inflacijo in drugimi gospodarskimi težavami. Po mnenju Currieja pa je ta ideja popolnoma napačna in ljudje vidijo bitcoin in njegove kripto bratrance v zavajajoči luči.

V nedavnem intervjuju je izjavil:

Oglejte si povezavo med bitcoinom in bakrom ali merilom nagnjenosti k tveganju in bitcoinom in imamo deset let zgodovine trgovanja z bitcoinom. Vsekakor gre za sredstvo, ki tvega.

The statement is ironic in that among the most recent exchange-traded funds (ETFs) approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are those stemming from copper. Now, there are several financial entities out there working their behinds off to garner greenlights on bitcoin-based ETFs, though they have largely been unsuccessful up to this point in time. However, several analysts are claiming that 2021 could see such products come to light in the U.S., especially after neighbors such as Canada have gotten approval.

Currie pravi, da so vsi bitcoin, baker in zlato zasnovani za spopadanje z različnimi oblikami inflacije in da je primerjava prve in druge napačna poteza glede na to, kako različne so njihove lastnosti. Navaja:

Inflacija je dobra, inflacija pa slaba. Dobra inflacija je takrat, ko jo povleče povpraševanje, in to je tisto, kar Bitcoin varuje. To je tisto, kar bakrene žive meje. To je tisto, kar živo mejo olje. Zlato varuje slabo inflacijo, kjer se omejuje ponudba, ki je ... osredotočena na pomanjkanje žetonov, surovin in drugih vrst vhodnih surovin, zlato pa bi želeli uporabiti kot to živo mejo.

The world was recently on the verge of economic disaster due to the pandemija koronavirusa. Inflation is still making its way through centralized banking systems, which is ultimately what made many people turn to bitcoin in the first place. In this sense, Goldman Sachs recommends using commodities – such as BTC – as a means of fighting initial signs of oncoming inflation, though they do not serve as strong a purpose once inflation has fully arrived.

Obstajajo različne oblike inflacije

V opombi je Goldman Sachs trdil:

Blago je promptno sredstvo, ki ni odvisno od terminskih stopenj rasti, temveč od ravni povpraševanja glede na današnjo ponudbo. Posledično se varujejo kratkoročno nepričakovane inflacije, ki nastane, ko stopnja skupnega povpraševanja v poznih fazah poslovnega cikla presega ponudbo.
