Bitcoin ETF Is Not Most Important Adoption Vector for BTC, Gabor Gurbacs Says

More and more cryptocurrency experts are sure that the potential approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF by U.S. regulators will trigger another bullish rally and introduce Bitcoin (BTC) to no-coiners. Crypto veteran Gabor Gurbacs shares his own "perspective" on global BTC adoption mechanisms.

Bitcoin ETF journey is great, but focus on developing markets, Gurbacs says

Generations of unbanked individuals and businesses in regions with emerging economies remain the main adoption vector for Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency. Tether and VanEck's advisor Gabor Gurbacs shared this observation today with his 56,000 Twitter followers.

Some big financial institutions in Developed Markets want to offer Bitcoin funds. That's great, but the most important adoption vector is individuals and businesses in Emerging Markets (many unbanked) who do need Bitcoin. Just some perspective that's worth remembering.
