Bitcoin and digital assets are among the most debated, complex, and controversial asset classes on the market today. Despite being a polarizing topic, nobody can deny their growing importance in global finance and even in Trump's administration in the White House.

That's why we're thrilled to have Ryan Lessard, a Digital Asset Strategist from Fidelity, on the podcast today. Ryan shares his expertise in this emerging asset class to unpack Bitcoin's unique characteristics, including its capped supply of 21 million coins, the blockchain technology behind it, and how it compares to traditional assets like gold.

In our conversation, we discussed why Bitcoin has primarily appealed to younger investors and is particularly relevant in countries with economic instability and hyperinflation. We also explored Bitcoin's potential to diversify portfolios while addressing the challenges, the rapid pace of technological advancements, and the importance of staying curious and continually learning about this evolving space.
