Quotes to Remember by Matt Ye

1. On Bitcoin as digital gold

“Bitcoin is the new gold. If one wants to launch financial instruments or tokens that contain value, it is better if one has Bitcoin reserves. It has universal recognition and not just from governments, but from everyone.”

2. On why Lorenzo pivoted to Bitcoin

“We realized Bitcoin is the real blue ocean. We want to pioneer in this space, and that’s how Lorenzo became a Bitcoin-first protocol.”

3. On saving with Bitcoin

“If you are saving in fiat, you are slowly losing capital through inflation. With Bitcoin, there’s no inflation. It is the best way to save for the future.”

4. On Bitcoin banking for everyone

“We call ourselves a Bitcoin banking system. Holders can simply deposit their BTC and let us generate safe and reasonable yields, just like traditional banks, but fully on-chain.”

5. On Bitcoin vs other crypto assets

“Only Bitcoin has the recognition of value across governments, banks, corporations, and individuals. It is the gold standard of crypto.”

6. On his vision for Lorenzo

“We are building a one-stop Bitcoin finance station, expanding from staking into a full ecosystem of yield opportunities for BTC and wrapped BTC.”
