This reduces the number of available Bitcoins, intensifies market scarcity, increases upward pressure on prices, and strengthens investors’ confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term value.

SEC report disclosure: In the Gary Gensler era, crypto cases “did not bring benefits to investors”
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) acknowledged in its FY 2025 enforcement report that crypto registration cases under the leadership of the former chair did not effectively protect investors.

This indicates that the SEC is re-evaluating its regulatory strategy, with an emphasis on market health and investor protection.
