ChainCatcher news, according to Crowdfundinsider, the latest research report from the New York Digital Investment Group (NYDIG) points out that amidst the current economic uncertainty, Bitcoin is beginning to exhibit characteristics of a non-sovereign store of value.The report mentions that since the so-called "Trump Liberation Day" on April 2, 2025, the US dollar and long-term US Treasury bonds have performed poorly, while gold, the Swiss franc, and Bitcoin have gained favor in the market. While the US stock market has declined, Bitcoin has risen 10.3%, indicating a trend of decoupling from traditional risk assets.NYDIG emphasizes that although this trend is still in its early stages, current data is insufficient to confirm that Bitcoin's role as a safe-haven asset has been widely accepted by the market. However, considering the current structural volatility in the market and the weakening confidence in traditional safe-haven assets, Bitcoin may become one of the choices for investors seeking alternative stores of value.

ChainCatcher news, Nick Tomaino, the founder of 1confirmation, stated on X that most people in the crypto industry only focus on the industry itself, and the circle is very closed. Many people just happened to be in the right place at the right time and made huge fortunes, so the desire to replicate past successful models is natural. But that era has ended. Now, it is essential to truly understand mainstream culture and the intersection of the crypto industry with it. In today's crypto space, there is much more cognition, capital, and competition; simply "going with the flow" can no longer lead to easy success.For example, if you want to create on-chain games, you must thoroughly understand everything about Web2 games and build on-chain games based on that knowledge; merely copying the Axie model is far from enough.
