Where BTC fits in Canadian Finances 2025
Recently got muted from r/PersonalFinanceCanada on a post asking what good financial advice was given in your life. I noted studying Bitcoin not for the money, but rather the vast amount of knowledge I've gained in terms of monetary theory (from history to gold to Bretton Woods to the current Petrodollar), economic theory (Keynesian, Austiran, etc.). It was the nudge I needed to gain the knowledge required for my life. The ban is more indicative of a power tripping mod than anything else, but it got me thinking.
In 2025, is the average Canadian still thinking that it's not part of the whole financial discussion? To me it seems that anyone interested in finance or money in general would need to include Bitcoin, or at least acknowledge its value and its increasing role in the world. It would seem absurd for financial advisors not to have this knowledge in their tool kit considering we've had ETF's in Canada for years now.
In your circles, where does Bitcoin stand when talking about finance? Are financial advisors still ignoring this innovative tool?
