Cathie Wood casts Bitcoin as both a hedge and a risky bet

  • Wood frames Bitcoin as both a risk-on and risk-off asset
  • She expects easing inflation to pressure gold and lift BTC relative to it
  • BTC trades near $84,592 as traders await a breakout or rejection
  • ARK Invest cites growing institutional interest in crypto
Why it matters: Wood's dual-role thesis could accelerate institutional adoption of Bitcoin as a defensive portfolio allocation.
