Bitcoin Is Money, Not Currency — and Misunderstanding It Could Cost You
Thu Feb 05 2026
Most people have heard of Bitcoin — but very few can explain what it actually is, how it works, or whether it belongs in a retirement plan.
In this episode of The Great Wealth Transfer, David Pulcini, CFP® breaks Bitcoin down in plain English:
What Bitcoin actually is (and what it is not)
The difference between money vs currency
Why Bitcoin behaves more like digital gold
Whether Bitcoin threatens the US dollar
How retirees and pre-retirees should think about Bitcoin exposure
A neutral, fiduciary perspective on owning Bitcoin (no hype, no fear)
This episode is designed for investors over 50, retirees, and families navigating the Great Wealth Transfer who want clarity — not speculation.
