“Yeah, I definitely do. Every single week, we’re seeing more and more infrastructure built around Bitcoin and the crypto markets in general, whether it’s infrastructure around hash rate and mining supporting and securing the network, whether it’s Bakkt with physically-settled futures, the more infrastructure that’s built around this, the more likely it is to never go away.
