Bitcoin Strengthens: Time to Increase Crypto Literacy
Bitcoin (BTC) is once again drawing attention by recording a price of around US$95,011, showing an increase of 14.5% over the past 30 days and 58.5% compared to the previous year.
This increase comes after a period of stagnation influenced by U.S. trade tariff policies.
Ryan Lymn, CEO of Bittime, stated that this condition positions Bitcoin as the seventh largest asset by market capitalization, surpassing silver and major tech companies like Meta Platforms.
This reinforces Bitcoin’s position as an attractive investment alternative amid global economic uncertainty.
The Importance of Education Amid Crypto Growth
With the growing interest in crypto assets, Ryan emphasized the importance of literacy for investors, especially beginners.
He stated that a solid understanding of the crypto asset industry, including investment fundamentals and asset security, is crucial as the market continues to grow.
As a decentralized digital asset, crypto offers advantages over traditional assets.
Adequate information availability and secure trading platforms will greatly assist investors in managing their assets.
Support from the Government and Related Institutions
Based on information we sourced from Beincrypto media, Puteri Anetta Komarudin, a member of Commission XI of the Indonesian House of Representatives (DPR RI), also highlighted the importance of education in the crypto sector.
She encourages collaboration between industry players and the government to improve public financial literacy, in order to ensure consumer protection and prevent investment risks.
Initiatives such as the Crypto Literacy Month (BLK), initiated by the Indonesian Crypto Asset Traders Association (Aspakrindo), are concrete steps in educating the public.
This program aims to provide better understanding of crypto assets and promote sustainable adoption.
Conclusion
The rise in Bitcoin’s price is the right moment to strengthen crypto literacy in Indonesia.
With proper education, the public can understand the potential and risks of investing in digital assets, enabling them to make wiser and safer decisions.
