‘Pivotal Moment’—Coinbase CEO Predicts When Bitcoin Price Could Flip Gold’s $18 Trillion

“Any country with gold reserves should be holding at least 11% of that amount in bitcoin reserves,” Armstrong posted to X in response to criticism of Trump’s plan for a national bitcoin reserve. “And I believe in the next five to 10 years bitcoin’s market cap will likely surpass gold. So these reserves should grow to exceed gold.”

“We’re gonna do something great with crypto because we don’t want China, or anybody else … but others are embracing it, and we want to be ahead,” Trump told CNBC.

Korea Zinc’s shares rose sharply

The stock climbed 12% on Friday, its steepest one-day gain in nearly two months, outperforming the benchmark Kospi index’s 0.85% rise.

The extraordinary shareholders’ meeting had initially been called by private-equity firm MBK Partners and Korea Zinc’s major shareholder Young Poong, which have teamed up and increased their combined stake to more than 40% since September for control of the smelter, to reshape its board and management led by Chairman Yun B. Choi.

    Major stock indexes rallied, the dollar gained against the euro and other currencies while safe-haven gold dropped on Wednesday as investors grew optimistic about a possible de-escalation in the trade war between the U.S. and China.
