The first clause is has a misplaced comma, and the word order is awkward.

Incorrect: "Bitcoin for the current financial world, is like a deep breath..."
Correct but awkward: "Bitcoin, for the current financial world, is like a deep breath..."
Better: "For the current financial world, Bitcoin is like a deep breath..."

The last clause is grammatically correct, but "entering" is the wrong word. To "enter" something means to go inside it, not on top of it. A better word would be "reaching".

There should be no comma before the last clause unless you mean that before reaching the top of the mountain, Bitcoin is not like a deep breath (which makes no sense).

Putting it all together:
"For the current financial world, Bitcoin is like a deep breath after reaching the top of the mountain."

As in topic - can someone with high English skills check grammar in this quote:
