The competitive relationship between BTC and gold is intriguing. From a market performance perspective, these two major asset classes have recently shown an interesting seesaw effect—when one strengthens, the other often comes under pressure. As a representative of digital gold, Bitcoin, with its scarcity and round-the-clock trading characteristics, is redefining what is meant by "safe-haven asset."

But here I want to talk about something deeper: the spirit of open source. Many people's understanding of open source stops at the shallow perception of "free," not realizing that the core of open source has never been charity, but rather the construction of more resilient systems through transparency and de-intermediation. Bitcoin is essentially a practitioner of this idea—open source code, transparent rules, and anyone can participate in validation. This paradigm is changing the financial world's definition of "trust."
