Treasury bonds and bitcoin

There seems to be a belief by some people that:
1) The money that is currently put into negative-yielding Treasury bonds needs a new "home" and
2) That new "home" is likely to be bitcoin

Can someone explain this in more detail. Why are Treasury bonds being compared to bitcoin? I understand the rationale behind point 1, but don't really see why a large portion of it will move into bitcoin. I can see it moving away from Treasury bonds, but I also see it moving to stocks, real estate, gold, silver, other commodities, art, pokemon cards etc.
