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.

Air Canada passengers still scrambling to rebook as labour dispute grounds flights
Air Canada employees and union members protest outside the Air Canada headquarters in Montreal, Sunday, Aug. 17, 2025, after the federal government intervened in the labour dispute between the airline and the union representing its flight attendants, ordering binding arbitration and operations to resume. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Graham Hughes Air passengers are still scrambling to rebook their flights home as a labour dispute between Air Canada and its flight attendants continues to ground planes around the world. James Hart and Zahara Virani came to Toronto from Calgary for what they thought would be a fun weekend. But now they're having to miss work and pay $2,600 to fly with another airline after their Air Canada flight was cancelled amid the strike and lockout that began Saturday. Virani says she doesn't blame the flight attendants, and is disappointed in Air Canada for not reaching a deal with its workers. The union representing more than 10,000 flight attendants says the workers plan to remain on strike even after the Canada Industrial Relations Board ordered both parties back to work by 2 p.m. ET today. Air Canada had said it would restart flights later today, but it is unclear how the latest news from the union will impact that plan. The Canadian Press
