Pierre Rochard on How Bitcoin Goes From Store of Value to Global Currency
Show Notes
Bitcoin’s evolution has long been defined by tension between two visions: a store of value and a global currency. In this conversation, Pierre Rochard explores how Bitcoin can bridge those worlds, from serving as a savings instrument to becoming everyday money. He discusses the cultural divide between “digital gold” holders and users seeking practical payments, why mainstream adoption requires empathy and better product design, and how institutions can act as an educational Trojan horse for Bitcoin’s ethos without diluting its principles. 🎧 From the 21-in-21 podcast recorded at 📍Presidio Bitcoin 🔗 Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjix9O2kQ3k&t=106s FOLLOW: Pierre Rochard: @BitcoinPierre https://x.com/BitcoinPierre Haley Berkoe: @HBerkoe https://x.com/HBerkoe Presidio Bitcoin: @PresidioBitcoin https://x.com/PresidioBitcoin SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4UPEsVa...
