In a detailed interview with CNBC, Johnson shed light on the rising demand for <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/cryptocurrencies\/section\/what-is-a-bitcoin\/\">Bitcoin<\/a>, especially following the recent <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/u-s-markets-to-see-spot-bitcoin-etfs-after-sec-approval\/\">launch<\/a> of new Bitcoin ETFs, including one from her company. This development came after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved Franklin Templeton\u2019s BTC ETF among 11 others.<\/p>\n<p>Johnson\u2019s viewpoint on Bitcoin extends beyond its use as just a means of investment. She discusses its role as a financial safety net, sharing personal anecdotes to illustrate this. <em>\u201cOne of the things that made me a believer is I went around the world talking to people\u2026. I had somebody who said \u2018I keep 50% of my savings in Bitcoin because if I say the wrong thing in my country, I could have my assets confiscated.\u2019 I remember talking to somebody in Israel who said, \u2018My parents and their parents had all their assets confiscated.\u2019 They keep a portion of [their savings] in Bitcoin, so there\u2019s a fear component to it that is considered almost an insurance or safety component,\u201d<\/em> Johnson explains.<\/p>\n<p>These ETFs, according to Johnson, not only provide access to BTC but also play a role in maintaining a price floor for the cryptocurrency. <em>\u201cBut I also think it\u2019s really important to fueling what is the next real opportunity in this blockchain world,\u201d<\/em> she adds, highlighting the company\u2019s decision to launch the first US-registered mutual fund that uses a public blockchain to process transactions and record share ownership.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/franklin-templeton-witnesses-rising-global-demand-for-bitcoin-and-possibilities\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Crypto News &#8211; iGaming.org ) Bitcoin\u2019s status as a financial safe haven is increasingly acknowledged, as highlighted by Jenny Johnson, President and CEO of Franklin Templeton.
