Bitcoin Will Power a New Global Financial Infrastructure Capable of Moving Trillions of Dollars Daily

Former PayPal president David Marcus has projected Bitcoin as the cornerstone of a forthcoming global financial infrastructure

Former PayPal president David Marcus has once again set the crypto community ablaze with his bold and forward-looking statements. In a recent update by Cointelegraph on X, Marcus is still projecting Bitcoin as the cornerstone of a forthcoming global financial infrastructure, one capable of moving trillions of dollars daily.

🔥 BULLISH: Former PayPal President David Marcus says #Bitcoin will power a new global financial infrastructure capable of moving trillions of dollars daily.

This isn’t the first time Marcus has drawn attention to Bitcoin’s broader use cases. As the co-founder of the Bitcoin-centric financial technology firm Lightspark, and a figure who has mentored a generation of Web3 startups, his perspective carries weight.

And he has consistently argued that the flagship cryptocurrency can serve not only as a store of value or a hedge against inflation, but also as the primary settlement layer for a new financial system.

In his own words: "Bitcoin is being made for this moment in history. It’s the tech that will move trillions of dollars daily in a new global financial infrastructure that is unfolding before our very eyes."

What Marcus envisions is an internet-native financial system where Bitcoin acts as the trustless and neutral settlement layer. In such a system, users, businesses, and institutions could transfer value across borders at speeds and costs previously unimaginable through traditional financial intermediaries.

With Lightning Network and similar Layer 2 innovations gaining traction, the infrastructure to support such large-scale, high-frequency settlements is gradually materializing.

This ambition aligns with growing institutional interest in Bitcoin as a settlement asset. Major firms, from asset managers to payment processors, are beginning to explore how BTC can be integrated into their operations, not just as an investment, but as an operational tool for liquidity and remittance.

However, skeptics may argue that Bitcoin is not currently equipped to handle trillions of dollars in daily volume. But Marcus’s prediction doesn’t rest solely on the base layer of Bitcoin but on the evolving ecosystem of technologies being built atop it.

Innovations like the Lightning Network, which enable near-instant, low-cost micropayments, and the integration of Bitcoin rails into enterprise-grade platforms are already proving that Bitcoin’s scalability challenges can be mitigated.

As global commerce increasingly digitizes, and as inflationary concerns push more capital into decentralized, censorship-resistant assets, Bitcoin is poised to become not just a hedge or a reserve—but the plumbing of the financial world.

Only time will tell whether this vision will come to pass. However, with major crypto projects now experimenting with interoperability and as the enterprise sector shows signs of interest in the ecosystem’s potential, the possibilities for a parallel financial system are opening up.
