Steve Wozniak, the co-founder of the multinational technology company Apple who is popularly called “The Woz” revealed that bitcoin is a better asset class than gold.

He said,
“Gold is limited and you have to look for it; Bitcoin is the most amazing mathematical miracle. I do not invest in Bitcoin, but I believe in it for the future.
