FERRARI’S BIG MOVE šŸŽļø

Breaking: Ferrari’s Bitcoin acceptance is major market win, says CoinFlip CEO

Ferrari

CoinFlip CEO Ben Weiss believes it’s a matter of when not if big-name companies will follow Ferrari’s lead.

Ferrari’s decision to allow US clients to purchase its cars with Bitcoin is one of the markets biggest wins for 2023, at least according to Weiss.

Ferrari noticed an increase in the amount of clients requesting crypto payments and decided to pull the trigger.

Do you have a spare 11.85 Bitcoin lying around? (wouldn't that be nice...)

If you do, you could purchase yourself a brand new Ferrari 812 GTS. šŸ˜Ž

ā€œTheir notable reputation can increase adoption, cryptocurrency value and consumer confidence,ā€

Ben Weiss

Ferrari's move will spark interest from other traditional global firms. Weiss believes we will soon see some big-name companies accepting crypto payments.

ā€œIt’s not a matter of will big-name companies follow Ferrari’s footsteps, but when. Bitcoin is the best-performing asset of the decade, proving it’s here to stay and encouraging other big names like PayPal and BlackRock to embrace digital assets.ā€

Ben Weiss

Interestingly, one of the main reasons Ferrari adopted Bitcoin payments was due to it’s sustainability.

ā€œThe analysis of data regarding the environmental impact associated with cryptocurrencies has been a fundamental part of our decision-making process to adopt cryptocurrencies — in line with our objective to become carbon neutral by 2030,ā€

Ferrari Spokesperson

You may be thinking that sounds contradictory. Bitcoin isn’t sustainable right? šŸ¤”

Wrong.

Bitcoin is actually the most sustainable global industry. (more on this below) 😱

BITCOIN TO $350,000 BY 2025🌟 

Bitcoin will hit $75,000 - $80,000 in the middle of 2024.

It will then go on to peak at north of $350,000 by September 2025.

That’s the price forecast out by today’s crypto expert, Ken Olling.

Ken Olling is the Founder and CEO of MELD - a web3 DeFi protocol, providing cross-chain lending.

When it comes to crypto, Ken knows his stuff.

He believes a ā€˜panic-level’ rally is coming for Bitcoin.

Why? Ken argues that the spot Bitcoin ETF is being underestimated by the market.

It’s paving the way for a tsunami of fresh investment into Bitcoin. 🌊 

ā€œPeople are going to see the dollar going down in value and the perceived value of of Bitcoin going up... Then just the massive accumulation of Bitcoin into these ETFs. They're just going to suck all of the oxygen out of the air for Bitcoin. It's going to cause an almost like a panic-level rally.ā€

Ken Olling

Additionally, none of the problems regarding inflation have been fixed. The dollar is being devalued and this isn't going to stop.

The combination of Bitcoin’s price going up whilst the dollar is going down in value?

That will cause a panic-level rally. šŸ˜±

BITCOIN SUSTAINABILITY MYTH BUSTED āŒ

A common argument against Bitcoin is that the heavy energy use in mining makes its carbon footprint unsustainable.

Daniel Batten, CEO of CH4 Capital has just released a research report that proves this argument is completely false.

Let’s go over three of the most common arguments against Bitcoin mining.

Argument 1: Bitcoin predominantly uses and proliferates the use of fossil fuels

False.

Bitcoin mining is actually the leading industry in terms of sustainable power usage.

52.6% of the Bitcoin networks energy use comes from sustainable sources.

Bitcoin rank 1

Argument 2: Bitcoin has emissions which are large, and likely to grow exponentially

False.

Bitcoin’s total emissions have actually decreased. What’s more, this decrease came as the hash rate has continued to rise…

Bitcoin is the only global industry where industry growth has not led to emission growth. 😲

Emissions

Argument 3: Bitcoin has growing emissions intensity

False.

Emission intensity is a measure of emissions per unit of energy.

Bitcoin’s emission intensity has halved over the last 3 years. It is now lower than any other industry.

Emission intensity

Clearly there’s been some widespread FUD…
