Bitcoin’s next chapter: From passive asset to financial powerhouse
This episode of the Clear Crypto Podcast uncovers how Bitcoin is shedding its passive role and becoming a usable financial tool through wrapped assets, bridges and new DeFi use cases.
For years, Bitcoin (BTC) has remained in digital hibernation, meaning it is held tightly in wallets and admired as “digital gold,” though rarely used. According to StarkWare’s Bitcoin lead Ilia Volokh, that era may be ending.
On the latest episode of The Clear Crypto Podcast, hosts Nathan Jeffay and Gareth Jenkinson dig into what it means for Bitcoin to evolve from a static store of value to a dynamic financial instrument.
The conversation centers on how innovations like wrapped Bitcoin and trustless bridges may unlock new uses for the world’s most well-known cryptocurrency.
