Bitcoin (BTC) is set to assert its dominance in the cryptocurrency market by the conclusion of 2023, as its superiority “is going to be clear” in all respects, according to the CEO of Fedi.
During the Bitcoin 2023 conference in Miami on May 20, Cointelegraph journalist Joe Hall spoke with Obi Nwosu, the CEO and co-founder of Fedi – a Bitcoin community custody protocol that provides an alternative for individuals who either lack access to or do not trust centralized exchanges.

Nwosu stressed during the discussion that it is becoming “increasingly hard to deny” that Bitcoin has the “fastest, cheapest, easiest, most decentralized and secure” ecosystem.
He expects this will be even more evident by the end of the year. He remarked:
“It is going to be clear by the end of this year that it’s going to be tick, tick, tick for Bitcoin.”
Nwosu indicated that whether the aim is to enhance functionality, create a decentralized social media platform, or empower local communities, it is becoming “increasingly obvious” that Bitcoin is the most effective and secure option.
Nonetheless, he acknowledges that there is room for other cryptocurrencies alongside Bitcoin. He envisions a “multi coin future,” likening it to the progression of music.

Additionally, he highlighted a “big misunderstanding” regarding its “slow innovation.”
He clarified that there is a misconception about a functional or scaling limitation with Bitcoin, but the “reality is” advancements are occurring “incredibly fast,” with an emphasis on developing solutions “that are correct the first time.”
Nwosu noted that focusing on perfection may lead to delays but is preferable to the necessity for modifications to be made “again, and again.”

In Nwosu’s perspective, cryptocurrency is fundamentally “an idea,” as it “is a combination of the philosophical aspects and the technological aspects kind of combined together.”
He elaborated that due to the intangible nature of cryptocurrency, it cannot be countered with physical forces such as “guns or missiles.” Instead, it is susceptible to attacks through “misinformation and sometimes inappropriate or extreme regulation.”
Countries that do not uphold freedom of speech, or freedom in general, are actively pursuing stringent regulations concerning cryptocurrency, according to Nwosu.
He believes that the solution to combat this is to “correct” misinformation and establish systems that “empower the good guys.”
