The Greatest Misses


βI just don't believe in this bitcoin thing. I think it's just going to implode one day. I think this is Enron in the making.β
They Weren't the Only Ones Wrong

βI am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air.β
β Donald Trump
$11,350

βJust replace the word Bitcoin with Beanie Babies. Should the Fed buy Beanie Babies because they were a fad for a while?β
β Neel Kashkari
$67,824

βBitcoin is a highly speculative asset, not a currency. Unreliability, lack of stability, and susceptibility to fraud will continue to plague this cryptocurrency. Don't be tricked, buying Bitcoin is a fool's game.β
β Steve Hanke
$27,271

βBitcoin is dead as predicted - Don't get stucked inβ
β Kevin George
$20,800

βBitcoin plays into a fantasy of self-sufficient individualism, of protecting your family with your personal AR-15, treating your Covid with an anti-parasite drug or urine and managing your financial affairs with privately created money, untainted by institutions like governments or banks.β
β Paul Krugman
$38,483

βIβd say Bitcoin is doomed in the medium-term future. Farrell is right: it can be a bit of a curiosity, but if it ever enjoys wider success, that very success will kill it.β
β Kevin Drum
$311

βBitcoin, I think we can say, is dead. There is no traction, no one is using bitcoin. The bitcoin experiment, I think we can say, is over.β
β Taavet Hinrikus
$428

βCryptocurrencies play almost no role in economic transactions other than speculation in crypto markets themselves. And if your answer is βgive it time,β you should bear in mind that bitcoin has been around since 2009, which makes it ancient by tech standards; Apple introduced the iPad in 2010.β
β Paul Krugman
$30,416

βI get a kick out of #Bitcoin fanatics who accuse me of secretly owning Bitcoin, but refusing to publicly wear the ribbon. They are just so drunk on the Kool-Aid that they can't accept that I legitimately disagree with their perspective. I just don't see the emperor's new clothes.β
β Peter Schiff
$60,800

βIt's a mirage basically. It's a very effective way of transmitting money and you can do it anonymously and all that. A check is a way of transmitting money too. Are checks worth a whole lot of money just because they can transmit money? I hope bitcoin becomes a better way of doing it but you can replicate it a bunch of different ways. The idea that it has some huge intrinsic value is just a joke in my view.β
