1 Reason Why Now Is the Time to Buy Bitcoin (BTC)
Key Points Bitcoin's scarcity, with a hard cap of 21 million units, is what makes it a special asset. The digital asset's supply is enforced by a pre-determined halving schedule. Because of the burgeoning federal debt and money supply, Bitcoin's price should keep rising. 10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin › It's impossible to argue with Bitcoin 's (CRYPTO: BTC) performance. Over the past five- and 10-year periods, its price has soared 942% and 47,330%, respectively (as of Aug. 14). The gains have continued more recently, as the cryptocurrency's price is up 104% just in the last 12 months. Bitcoin now trades close to its record price. After such a monumental historical rise, investors are probably wondering if it's smart to buy this top digital asset. In my opinion, it's easy to remain bullish. Here's one must-know reason why now is the time to buy Bitcoin. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » Bitcoin has a fixed supply The top reason to buy Bitcoin now is because this leading cryptocurrency has a fixed supply cap. There will only ever be 21 million units in circulation. Right now, there are 19.9 million Bitcoin units out there. The growth in supply is pre-determined by a halving event that occurs approximately every four years. Unless the majority of nodes agree to change the rules, Bitcoin's hard cap isn't going to change. Never-ending currency debasement Owning a scarce asset makes financial sense in its own right. However, when viewed next to the state of the current monetary system, the allure is strikingly clear. The U.S. carries an alarming $37 trillion in federal debt. This figure, and the money supply, have skyrocketed in the past 15 years thanks to unprecedented levels of stimulus. To get out of the Great Recession, and more recently to boost the economy following the COVID-19 pandemic, the government pumps more money into the system. Even in seemingly solid economic times, the debt and money supply expand. More fiat currency chasing a fixed amount of Bitcoin supports a much higher price for the digital asset years and decades from now. Should you invest $1,000 in Bitcoin right now? Before you buy stock in Bitcoin, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Bitcoin wasn't one of them. The 10 stocks that made the cut could produce monster returns in the coming years.

Prediction: Dogecoin Will Be Worth $0.40 in 1 Year
Key Points Dogecoin's price has dropped more than 70% from its all-time high. New ETFs, pro-crypto regulations, and lower interest rates could drive it higher. Big purchases by whales suggest that brighter days are ahead. 10 stocks we like better than Dogecoin › Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE), which was created as a meme-based parody of Bitcoin in 2013, has gone on a wild ride since its market debut. It started trading at about $0.0002, surged to a record high of $0.74 in May 2021, but now trades at about $0.21. A $100 investment made back then would have briefly grown to $370,000 before shrinking to $100,000. A 1,000-bagger gain in less than 12 years is still incredible, but it might struggle to replicate those gains during the next decade. However, I think that doubling its price to $0.40 within the next 12 months remains a realistic target for five simple reasons. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue » 1. The approvals for Dogecoin's spot price ETFs Several major crypto firms -- including Grayscale, Bitwise, and 21Shares -- submitted their applications for Dogecoin spot price exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) earlier this year. Those ETFs could boost Dogecoin's price by attracting more retail and institutional investors. They would also make Dogecoin more comparable to Bitcoin and Ethereum, which were both cleared for their spot price ETFs last year. 2. The Trump administration's crypto-friendly policies The Trump administration is embracing cryptocurrencies with its planned launch of a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, and its appointment of Paul Atkins -- a strong supporter of the crypto industry -- as the new SEC chairman could clear the way for Dogecoin's ETFs. President Donald Trump has also been urging the Federal Reserve, which hasn't cut its benchmark rates this year, to accelerate its rate cuts to spur economic growth. If the Fed finally starts cutting rates again, many investors will rotate back toward riskier assets like Dogecoin. 3. Social media buzz and celebrity endorsements A lot of Dogecoin's early growth was driven by big endorsements from celebrities like Elon Musk, Mark Cuban, and Snoop Dogg. Musk sparked big rallies with his unpredictable tweets about Dogecoin, had Tesla start accepting Dogecoin payments for some of its products in late 2021, and X (formerly Twitter) recently integrated Dogecoin payments into its platform. His creation and brief leadership of the controversial Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) under the Trump administration generated even more buzz for the meme coin. Dogecoin's huge social media presence -- which includes 2.7 million subreddit members on Reddit and 11.2 billion related views on TikTok -- amplified those gains. That support from celebrities and social media users could drive Dogecoin's price a lot higher on any positive developments. 4. The expansion of its developer ecosystem Dogecoin is mined with the same energy-intensive proof-of-work mechanism as Bitcoin. But unlike Bitcoin, which has a maximum supply of 21 million tokens, Dogecoin is an inflationary token with nearly 150 billion coins in circulation and no maximum supply. Therefore, it can't be valued by its scarcity like Bitcoin or other deflationary tokens. Dogecoin also doesn't support smart contracts, which are used to develop decentralized apps (dApps) and other crypto assets. That limitation is preventing it from becoming a major developer platform like Ethereum or Solana. The bears often argue that Dogecoin's lack of a developer ecosystem will inhibit its growth potential. But that could change as Dogecoin, an official Layer 2 blockchain built on Polygon, tethers more dApps and crypto assets to its cryptocurrency. 5. The whales are accumulating Dogecoin During the past year, some big anonymous investors -- known as whales -- ramped up their purchase of Dogecoin even as retail investors backed off. That more favorable sentiment isn't surprising, since ETF approvals, interest rate cuts, Musk's support, and the gradual expansion of Dogecoin's developer ecosystem could drive its price a lot higher. Considering that Dogecoin traded as high as $0.48 last December, a flurry of positive developments should easily drive it back to at least $0.40. I'm not saying it's a great long-term investment yet, but I wouldn't be too surprised if it doubles within the next year. Should you invest $1,000 in Dogecoin right now? Before you buy stock in Dogecoin, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the 10 best stocks for investors to buy now… and Dogecoin wasn't one of them.
