Why One of Our Clients Thinks Bitcoin Is the “Trade of the Generation”

(*) THIS IS NOT A FINANCIAL ADVISE

4th July 2025

Australia Financial year 2025 is a wrap!

Following great feedback on recent BTC blog post we decided to have a chat again with James, a long-term Bitcoin investor and one of our clients, who shared his thoughts on today’s economy (dated 29th June 2025) and why he believes Bitcoin might be the best financial decision anyone can make over the next decade. His views may sound bold, but they come from years of closely watching global markets and digital assets.

The Problem With How Governments Spend

James started by pointing out something many of us don’t often think about—how governments pay for things. A big new spending bill in the U.S. is expected to add over $3 trillion to their debt.

But here’s the catch: governments don’t always use tax money for spending. Instead, they create new debt, and the central bank basically “prints” more money to cover it.

According to James, this is like adding more and more water to a cup of juice. It may look full, but it’s getting weaker. The more money that gets printed, the less valuable each dollar becomes. And since governments rely on this system to fund public services, he says this pattern is unlikely to change.

Are Assets Really Going Up in Value?

You’ve probably noticed headlines like “Property Hits Record High” or “Stock Market Booms Again”. But James warns that this can be misleading. He says these prices are not necessarily rising because things are getting better—but because the money we use is getting weaker.

He shared an example: if you look at the U.S. share market (S&P 500) compared to gold, it hasn’t really grown over the last 20+ years. That means if you had just held gold instead of shares, your value would’ve stayed about the same.

Why James Chooses Bitcoin?

James believes Bitcoin is different. It has a fixed supply (only 21 million will ever exist) and no one can print more of it. That’s why he calls it “real money.” Unlike the dollar or Aussie dollar, Bitcoin can’t be changed by a government or central bank.

He sees Bitcoin as a better way to protect your money from inflation and believes its value will keep going up as more people realise this. For James, Bitcoin is not just a digital asset—it’s a way to hold onto value in a system where traditional money is losing its strength.

His Strategy (... again - this is NOT a financial advise)

James puts a little bit of money into Bitcoin every week—a method called dollar-cost averaging. It’s a simple approach that involves buying small amounts regularly instead of trying to time the market. He also said he compares all other investments (like property or shares) to Bitcoin to see which one gives better value.

His advice? Don’t just think about how much money you have in dollars—think about what that money can actually buy in the future. For him, Bitcoin is a way to protect his wealth from the effects of inflation and growing government debt.
