 <p class="paragraph">In this context, Anthony Pompliano forecasted Bitcoin would become more valuable than gold in the long term. The cryptocurrency investor defended his forecast based on the idea of Bitcoin being some form of “Digital Gold.”</p>
 <blockquote class="wp-block-quote">
  <p class="paragraph">“In my career, anytime that you saw something that was the digital version of an analog asset, the digital version usually ended up becoming worth more than the analog version.”</p> <cite>– Anthony Pompliano</cite>
 </blockquote>
 <p class="paragraph">However, it is important to understand that Bitcoin has none of the industrial properties of gold, limiting its demand capacities. Some investors may compare both assets due to BTC’s controlled inflation and a maximum possible supply of 21 million coins.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Kiyosaki agreed with Pompliano’s vision and said he holds 65 BTC, worth nearly $3 million at current prices.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">In summary, the renowned author <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="convert" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/convert.html">convert</a>ed to Bitcoin by believing it has similar economic properties to gold while being faster and cheaper to move. Robert Kiyosaki and Anthony Pompliano share a bullish bias on the leading cryptocurrency.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Nevertheless, BTC is a high-volatility asset that is still maturing and is mostly experimental in the finance market. Investors must remain cautious, do their due diligence, and understand the asset they are investing in, with all its properties, threats, and opportunities.</p>
