Jinse Finance’s exclusive analysis still needs to work hard to represent blockchain 3.0 EOS: EOS prices are now at the leading stage, and discussions about EOS are gradually increasing. EOS is even considered to be the representative of blockchain 3.0, but in fact the current EOS It is far from meeting the requirements of blockchain 3.0, and EOS still needs to work hard. In terms of the transmission rate that EOS is proud of, in the EOS2.0 white paper, it is said that EOS can reach a transmission speed of 50,000 TPS per second, but in fact, the transmission speed of 50,000 TPS per second can be said to be blockchain The final transmission speed, this speed should be the speed at which the blockchain develops into a "full body" form. During the testing process, using a single machine with a gigabit network for a single-process test, the highest transmission speed can reach 200,000 TPS per second, which is in the case of no interference, while the transmission rate of EOS is 50,000 TPS per second. , is to calculate the participating nodes on the network, and use the algorithm of A=B+C to calculate that EOS has a transmission rate of 50,000 TPS per second, which cannot meet the needs of blockchain 3.0.

Paul Tudor Jones does not see inflation in the short term, as the severe contraction in demand during the current COVID-19 pandemic will prevent the price of goods and services from rising in the short term. However, there is great uncertainty in the long run. He believes the central bank will give it a "hands-on" as it is financing an increasingly leveraged economy. He highlighted that the U.S. M2 money supply is growing at its fastest pace since World War II, far outstripping real GDP growth, which has historically been sure to lead to inflation.

Store of Value Asset Evaluation

To pick store-of-value assets, Paul Tudor Jones evaluated financial assets, fiat currencies, gold, and bitcoin in terms of purchasing power, trustworthiness, liquidity, and portability. Although Bitcoin scored the lowest of the four assets, he emphasized key attributes of Bitcoin such as a "set maximum supply" and 24/7 liquidity. Paul Tudor Jones believes that compared to other assets, Bitcoin has superior transferability, emphasizing that Bitcoin can be easily transferred through the Internet in extremely unfavorable situations such as war.

"So, here are some discussions to have in evaluating the suitability of each asset as a store of value. Let What surprises me is not that bitcoin is last, but that bitcoin has a high score. Bitcoin has an overall score close to 60% of financial assets, yet has a market cap that is only 1/1200th that of financial assets. Its score is 66% of gold , but its market value is only 1/60 of gold. It seems that something is wrong, my guess is the price of bitcoin (undervalued).”

Bitcoin Bull Market

Paul Tudor Jones believes that the most convincing argument for holding Bitcoin is the imminent digitization of money. "The bull market is built on an expanding pool of buyers." Projects like Facebook's Libra and China's DCEP will make digital currency wallets commonplace, making bitcoin easier to own, use and understand than it is today.

He went on to compare Bitcoin to gold in the mid to late 1970s. Gold was used as a futures product in the 1970s, and Bitcoin had a futures product in 2017. Gold prices tripled during the 1973-1975 bull market, then retraced more than 50% over the next two years, similar to Bitcoin’s 80% retracement in 28 months.

After that, the price of gold continued to rise to four times the previous high, and Paul Tudor Jones believes that Bitcoin's performance is likely to be similar to that of gold.
