Top 6 Bitcoin Critics Share Their Views
Despite Bitcoin’s recent surge to new highs, several prominent critics continue to express their skepticism about the cryptocurrency. Here are six notable critics who have shared their views on Bitcoin:
- Jamie Dimon: The CEO of JPMorgan Chase has been a vocal critic of Bitcoin for years. He recently referred to it as a "pet rock" and stated that he is done talking about it.
- Rafi Farber: As the publisher of the gold-focused marketplace service End Game Investor, Farber has expressed concerns about Bitcoin’s potential contribution to inflation. He believes that buying Bitcoin only stimulates the price of Treasurys and spreads US inflation.
- Jamie Dimon (again): In an interview with CNBC, Dimon stated that he doesn’t care about Bitcoin even after spot BTC ETFs made a historical trading debut. He reiterated his stance as "I call it the pet rock."
- Rafi Farber (again): On his YouTube channel, Farber discussed the connection between Bitcoin, Tether USDt, and US Treasurys. He believes that this is a "spiral of monetary nothingness" and that buying Bitcoin only spreads US inflation.
- Bindseil and Schaaf (ECB): The ECB’s Bindseil and Schaaf have been critical of Bitcoin in several articles. They argue that it has failed to live up to its promise as a decentralized digital currency and is rarely used for legal transactions.
- Rafi Farber (final time): Despite his skeptical views, Farber doesn’t rule out changing his stance on Bitcoin someday. However, he needs to see how it weathers a global financial crisis before admitting that it’s a viable gold derivative.
