Bitcoin has overtaken gold as the preferred hard asset among American investors, with 49.6 million Americans (18.6% of adults) owning bitcoin compared to 28.8 million (10.8%) who hold gold. This shift is driven by easier access through apps and exchanges, favorable regulations, and a cultural preference for individual investing. The US holds 42% of global bitcoin, with significant government and corporate holdings, including 328,372 BTC held by the government. Bitcoin adoption is rising rapidly, supported by growing retail interest and increased availability through ETFs, signaling bitcoin's move toward becoming a standard part of American household portfolios.
