In a tweet posted to his official X account, Teng stated, "Countries and corporations that buy Bitcoin early will benefit from the upward momentum. Those who delay adoption risk paying a premium later."

Countries and corporations that buy #Bitcoin early will benefit from the upward momentum.

Those who delay adoption risk paying a premium later.

Teng's comments come at a time when Bitcoin is gaining traction, with rising institutional demand and growing interest from sovereign wealth funds and nation-states. However, recently, the Bitcoin price has been largely weighed down by macroeconomic concerns, dropping nearly 21% from its all-time high of $109,114 attained in January this year.
