Summary:
Cryptocurrency isn’t just about Bitcoin anymore, and it’s not going away. In this episode of Wealth Strategies Unleashed, Robert Gilliland & Sanctuary Wealth’s Chief Investment Strategist Mary-Ann Bartels break down the differences between Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP, and other major players in the digital asset space. They explore why Bitcoin is the only true “currency” in the group, how the rest function more like technology platforms or tokens, and why understanding their purpose is key before investing.
From the early days of the internet to the rise of Web3, this episode connects the dots between blockchain, smart contracts, and the race to build the infrastructure for a digital future.
We share actionable ways to:
-
Understand the difference between currency (Bitcoin) and tokens (Ethereum, Solana, XRP)
-
Evaluate the technology, use case, and adoption potential before buying any token
-
Recognize the risks and opportunities in a market still in its “dot-com” phase
-
Track regulatory developments that could boost confidence and wider adoption
-
View crypto as the next evolution of the internet—moving from “read/write” to “read/write/own”
