“Cryptocurrency is a contradiction in terms.
Currency means this can be used for all debts, public and private.
Okay, this piece of paper, whatever it is, this can be used, while
Cryptocurrency, if its not public, in other words, if its not a coin in some sense, which means a coin is a piece of metal which has the emperor or the kind or the sovereign stamped on it, the image of the sovereign, which means that the state backs up this currency.
Well, obviously crypto currencies are not backed by the state so therefore they are not currencies.
So, what is it? What is BitCoin?
BitCoin is, well, its like a tulip bulb, actually.
Its like gold.
It’s obvious it’s something that has value because people buy it. And the more people that buy it, the more its value increases.
And if people really get behind it, what you’re seeing is what I think we saw, at least in the last couple of weeks, a bubble.
I think we had the BitCoin bubble. And now, what you see now, you saw in it a few weeks ago. There was an article about the Winklevost twins becoming BitCoin billionaires.
This is known as the “suckers market”.
When you see article like this, usually they’re on the cover of NewsWeek, like these ten people became millionaires by selling real estate. What they’re really saying is ‘the big players want to get out of the real estate market, and at this point, the big players want to get out of the BitCoin market but they can’t get out unless somebody buys their BitCoin. So here’s a way for you to buy their BitCoin so they’re not going to have to dump a billion dollars’ worth of merchandise on the market and crash the price.
So I think BitCoin is – it’s like gold.
It’s not a currency.
It is not money.
It cannot be used as money but it can be a store of value as long as people keep bidding up the price.
As soon as that stops, you’re left with nothing.
You’re left with a tulip bulb.
That was the first bubble – the Tulip Mania – in Holland. "
