Massive news for crypto with JP Morgan now accepting Bitcoin and Ethereum as collateral. Why is this important? Well the wealthy make more money by buying assets and lending against them so they don't pay tax. That's what happens in the stock market, that's what happens in property and now it's happening in crypto. This is something that I've been accumulating Bitcoin for a long time because now you're able to use that as collateral to get cash flow using debt to pay interest on the cash flow without selling your Bitcoin and Ethereum. This, this is the future of crypto. It is now being seen as an actual collateralized asset that the world will want to accumulate to grow to cash flow. And as long as your debt is lower and your growth of the asset is outweighing and outpacing the debt within your own front and that is why Bitcoin and Ethereum will continue to be huge global assets and that's why this is massive, massive news for crypto.
