In his May 27 tweet, Mow wrote: “If the world understood #Bitcoin, we would be at $10M a coin now.” While the statement is provocative, it reflects a deeper truth about Bitcoin’s current adoption and market perception.
According to Mow, the main factor holding BTC back from reaching the million-dollar mark—or even higher—is a lack of global understanding. Despite its 15-year existence, Bitcoin remains widely misunderstood by both retail investors and institutional players. Many still associate it purely with speculative trading or dismiss it due to its volatility, overlooking its core principles of decentralization, digital scarcity, and sovereign financial ownership.
Mow’s view aligns with a broader belief in the Bitcoin community: that education and awareness are the final barriers to exponential growth. If central banks, governments, and individuals fully grasped the implications of a deflationary, trustless monetary system—especially in contrast to fiat currencies—demand would surge to unprecedented levels.
Additional obstacles include regulatory uncertainty, media skepticism, and technical barriers for mainstream adoption. Critics also argue that Bitcoin’s scaling limitations and energy use concerns still need resolution, though many believe these issues are either overstated or already being addressed by new developments.
