In a world plagued by a deadly global pandemic, high unemployment rates, trade wars, riots, and a near-total economic shutdown, investors around the world are actively looking for high performing assets, uncorrelated investments, and safe havens to store their fast depreciating wealth in.

- Widen the gap between the rich and the poor
- Bring about a lot of debt and public unrest
- Cause one of the worst recession we have ever experienced in human history and
- Bring an end to the financial system as we know it.
However, the government is making the situation worse with the unlimited amount of stimulus programs, fiat money printing, and government social interventions going on around the world.

These unfavorable policies have pushed more and more investors into the Bitcoin market where the government has little to no power. And this demand will only increase post coronavirus crisis, making Bitcoin a better and more effective alternative to other traditional investments like gold, silver, bonds, stocks, and crude oil.
