 <p class="paragraph">In his post, Kiyosaki seems to question whether this could endanger the position of Bitcoin as the faster and more convenient payment method than traditional banking. However, DigiBuild CEO Robert J. Salvador pointed out that “this doesn’t change anything for Bitcoin or its value proposition. If anything, it continues to drive adoption and usage of crypto.”</p> 
 <p class="paragraph">Meanwhile, in late August, Citibank shared its new edition of the <em>‘Securities Services Evolution’ </em>white paper, which listed several bullish factors for the crypto market’s growth, including interest in Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) and digital asset offerings, as well as growing confidence in digital money, including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoins.&nbsp;</p>
