Investment advisor Ross Gerber criticized Bitcoin's practical use, arguing that gold remains easier to use in daily transactions despite Bitcoin's promises as a global payment system. He also highlighted a shift in Bitcoin mining, with miners focusing more on AI infrastructure than cryptocurrency mining, suggesting Bitcoin's peak may be behind it. Gerber's skepticism extends to Bitcoin advocates like Michael Saylor, especially after Strategy sold some Bitcoin, raising questions about the cryptocurrency's long-term value beyond price speculation.
