Forecast Trend Report by Period

Bitcoin still needs more time before it can establish itself as mature "digital gold," Bybit Chief Executive Officer Ben Zhou said.

Wu Blockchain reported on September 20 that Zhou made the remarks in an interview with Cointelegraph during Paris Blockchain Week in April.

Zhou cited Bitcoin's recent price volatility. He said the cryptocurrency remains too volatile for traditional financial institutions to accept as a reliable store of value.

Still, he added that his long-term view is unchanged and that Bitcoin will eventually establish itself as "digital gold."
