Is It Too Late to Buy Bitcoin in 2025?

In this episode, Nik breaks down whether it’s too late to buy Bitcoin in 2025 now that it trades above $100,000 with a $2 trillion market cap. He walks through Bitcoin’s journey from a niche internet money to a globally recognized monetary asset and explains why this is still the early innings. Nik analyzes Bitcoin’s evolving role as it moves from digital gold to a trade settlement tool capable of replacing U.S. Treasuries, and what that means for its long-term valuation potential. The episode zooms out to explore Bitcoin’s path to global reserve status, generational wealth shifts, and why institutional investors are only beginning to wake up.
