NBA star Durant: Cryptocurrency is the future of the world

On September 19th, NBA star Kevin Durant publicly expressed his unwavering optimism about cryptocurrencies in an interview with CNBC, stating that "cryptocurrency is the future of the world." This statement quickly garnered widespread attention within the cryptocurrency and sports communities.

Durant is not only a cryptocurrency supporter, but also invested in Bitcoin as early as 2016. Interestingly, he revealed that he had been unable to access the Bitcoin he purchased at that time for a long time because he had forgotten his password, and therefore had not sold it to this day.

This "locked wealth" became a hot topic on social media, with many netizens jokingly calling it "the happiest problem." Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong responded to this issue the same day, stating, "We have fixed this account access issue, and the account recovery process is now complete." This statement seemed to suggest that Durant may have regained control of his Bitcoin assets, and also demonstrated that major trading platforms are continuously optimizing their user account experience.

Durant's remarks and experience have reignited public discussion about the security of cryptocurrency storage and investment mentality. Despite volatile market conditions, more and more public figures like him are publicly recognizing the long-term value of digital currencies, further propelling cryptocurrencies into mainstream awareness.
