The former CEO of TD Ameritrade, recently offered an optimistic outlook for Bitcoin, predicting significant growth ahead as the digital currency cements its place in the global financial system.
During an interview on CNBC, Joe Moglia explained that a major transformation is underway in the institutional view of Bitcoin. He credited regulatory changes under President Donald Trump’s leadership for fostering a more crypto-friendly environment, which he believes will further accelerate Bitcoin’s mainstream adoption.
Moglia emphasized that Bitcoin’s journey from skepticism to acceptance is a reflection of its lasting power. He expressed confidence that the cryptocurrency is no longer a passing trend, stating that it is “here to stay” and that its potential for growth remains substantial.
A key factor, according to Moglia, is the shift in U.S. policies that have favored business growth, including tax cuts and regulatory reductions. These measures have created an environment where institutions that were once cautious about digital assets are now exploring them more seriously.
The former CEO pointed to Wall Street’s changing attitude toward Bitcoin as a clear sign of the cryptocurrency’s permanence in traditional finance. Institutions that once dismissed Bitcoin, such as JPMorgan Chase, are now looking into digital asset services, signaling a broader acceptance.
