10x Research: Bitcoin's True Investment Thesis May Lie in Space Infrastructure and Decentralized Computing

Odaily reported that 10x Research released a report stating that the market generally believes Bitcoin's core value lies in hedging against currency debasement, but this is not its true investment thesis. The report argues that the core constraint facing decentralized currency is not monetary policy, but physical conditions, including energy, heat dissipation, and geographical jurisdictional limitations.

The report points out that with the development of space infrastructure, the constraints of heat, electricity, and geographical limitations faced by data centers could be alleviated in orbital environments. The connection between SpaceX, Starlink, and Bitcoin may represent a long-term strategic layout centered around future infrastructure construction.

10x Research believes that technologies such as satellites, encryption technology, and artificial intelligence can both promote the decentralization of power and potentially reinforce resource concentration. The world is competing around two sets of infrastructure systems.

The report also compares Bitcoin with China's digital yuan, suggesting they represent different paths for digital infrastructure. It also notes that as populations gradually move away from traditional network systems, the business models of companies like Palantir may also be affected.
