Bitcoin has a twisted relationship with the most powerful men on Wall Street

Bitcoin has reached a market valuation of $2 trillion and surpassed $103,000 per coin for the first time in its 15-year history. Despite initial criticism from Wall Street leaders, Bitcoin's success has sparked a clash between traditional finance and digital disruptors. Some prominent figures, such as Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan Chase and Larry Fink of BlackRock, have changed their tune and now embrace Bitcoin. However, Warren Buffett remains a staunch critic, referring to it as "rat poison squared." Bridgewater's Ray Dalio has shifted from skepticism to viewing Bitcoin as an alternative to gold. Institutional investors are showing increasing interest in Bitcoin, with companies like MicroStrategy planning to buy billions of dollars worth of the cryptocurrency. Overall, Bitcoin's milestones indicate the industry's maturity and growing acceptance.
