He also mentioned that &#8220;Energy Currency&#8221; is the money of physics; however, he added that it is not certain whether this conceptual money can replace fiat money.</p><p>Henry Ford, the king of automobiles, had also mentioned the concept of &#8220;Energy Currency,&#8221; although it was premature to be adopted at that time.</p><p>In my personal point of view, the interesting thing is that $BTC is acquiring new narratives. As all of us already know, when Satoshi Nakamoto first revealed Bitcoin&#8212;as written in the white paper&#8212;it was introduced as &#8220;peer-to-peer digital cash.&#8221; However, after one cycle, Bitcoin attained the position of &#8220;digital gold,&#8221; whether it was true or not. And this has pushed Bitcoin&#8217;s price up consistently.</p><p>What do you think? Have the narratives of Bitcoin, starting from &#8220;digital cash&#8221; to &#8220;digital gold,&#8221; lost their power and no longer attract people? If the next narrative of Bitcoin is &#8220;energy currency,&#8221; can Bitcoin become collateral for the next fiat system and be pegged directly?</p><p>Strategy has recently introduced $STRC, which seems to be almost cash, as it is pegged at $100 like a coupon bill. <em>This kind of bill, in other words, means cash. </em>In my personal opinion, this is an experiment in printing dollars using Bitcoin as collateral.</p><p><strong>&#8220;On one side, it&#8217;s creating a new narrative; on the other, it&#8217;s testing collateral.&#8221;</strong></p><p>These situations look interesting.</p><div id="youtube2-Rni7Fz7208c" class="youtube-wrap" data-attrs="{&quot;videoId&quot;:&quot;Rni7Fz7208c&quot;,&quot;startTime&quot;:null,&quot;endTime&quot;:null}" data-component-name="Youtube2ToDOM"><div class="youtube-inner"><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Rni7Fz7208c?rel=0&amp;autoplay=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;enablejsapi=0" frameborder="0" loading="lazy" gesture="media" allow="autoplay; fullscreen" allowautoplay="true" allowfullscreen="true" width="728" height="409"></iframe></div></div><div class="subscription-widget-wrap-editor" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://rhoppon.com/subscribe?&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Subscribe&quot;,&quot;language&quot;:&quot;en&quot;}" data-component-name="SubscribeWidgetToDOM"><div class="subscription-widget show-subscribe"><div class="preamble"><p class="cta-caption">Thanks for reading!
