Grant Cardone is an American businessman who created the 10X Rule, which outlines that your goals should be 10 times greater than what you believe you can achieve. In accordance with his 10X Rule, Cardone hosts a 10X Growth Conference, where Bitcoin was a recently a hot topic.
Inflation Erodes Your Savings
Cardone agreed that holding dollars is the riskiest thing you can do. Inflation essentially erodes the value of your money. In 2024, the Consumer Price Index reported inflation of 2.9%. This meant that $1,000 worth of goods in 2023 would cost you $1,029 in 2024. The interest rate on traditional savings accounts can’t keep up with the rate of inflation, causing your money to lose value each year.Â
While savings accounts are typically safer than investing, you are virtually guaranteed to lose every time. Investing in Bitcoin gives you the ability to win through appreciation. Using Bitcoin like a traditional savings account can unlock the best of both worlds. For one, you are still saving money. In addition, the value of your money can grow at a rate higher than inflation.
Competition Eliminates Investment OptionsÂ
The next reason Bitcoin is becoming the least risky investment is because competition eliminates investment options. Other people aren’t going to invest in their competition, leaving them to look for alternative investment avenues. For example, people and asset managers with investments in Target wouldn’t necessarily want to own Walmart, too.Â
Similar to competition, people want diversification through alternative asset classes. For example, owning stock in only retailers or energy companies opens the door to large portfolio swings. With real estate remaining high and gold prices showing little appreciation, people are moving toward Bitcoin. It’s the only asset that the higher the price, the less risky people perceive it.Â
Bitcoin Continues To Attract Large Capital Pools
Traditionally, technology is adopted in a top-down approach, meaning it starts with the military, moves to companies and finally reaches individuals. Bitcoin operates the opposite way, starting with individuals. With few barriers to entry, countless individuals are making Bitcoin investments, which have attracted larger pools of capital.Â
In the last fifteen years, Bitcoin has amassed a market cap of nearly $2 trillion, according to Forbes. Unlike traditional companies which can easily manipulate market cap by issuing more stock, Bitcoin doesn’t create more shares. As larger pools of capital are invested in Bitcoin, the price continues to climb.Â
The Bottom Line: Don’t Own ZeroÂ
Bitcoin isn’t going away anytime soon. If you’re considering investing in Bitcoin, it’s important to educate yourself. You can’t invest in something you don’t understand. Inflation eroding your savings, competition eliminating investment options, and the attraction of large capital pools are three reasons why Cardone believes Bitcoin is becoming the least risky investment in 2025.Â
The bottom line is, ultimately, don’t own zero. Bitcoin has already proved it’s here to stay. Whether you have $100 to invest or $10,000, Bitcoin is worth exploring.
