According to Wu, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley stated in a post on X that for countries that do not trust the United States, if they are unwilling to hold other countries' currencies or assets (due to their weakness and potential depreciation) when storing value, gold is an option but it comes with challenges in terms of transportation and storage. In contrast, Bitcoin cannot be devalued, is not controlled by any country, and can be held immediately, making it a superior choice.
