Is Bitcoin just another Beanie Baby? Or are Labubus the new altcoins?
In this video, I break down the viral comparison between Bitcoin and collectible fads like Beanie Babies and Labubus — and show why only one of them is actually built to store value.

This is a silly comparison but it’s a deep-dive into what makes something money. We’ll explore how real money emerges in history, why Bitcoin is following that path, and why collectibles, crypto tokens, and fiat currency can’t compete.

If you’re trying to understand why Bitcoin is different, and why it’s not just another fad, this one’s for you.
