Did you know that bitcoin does more in dollar volume transactions than gold?

And this has been going on for more than a year now?

That's right, bitcoin does more in dollar volume transactions than gold does, and it's not even close:

Bitcoin is on pace to do roughly $1.1 trillion.

Gold is on pace to do roughly $.4 trillion.

Remind me why again bitcoin can't get an ETF approved?!

When will that translate into higher prices????

Probably when all those transactions represent real world uses, instead of just trades on cryptocurrency exchanges.

That is without large institution investment which Gold currently has, I imagine once institutional investors enter the space, the number of transactions will sky rocket.

The price will for sure, but they mostly hold. I think transactions go up when bitcoin can actually be used to buy things. It needs the lightning network or something like it.
