He is a member of the Saudi Family.

How those guys become the richest in their country or having millions and billions is not about a success story, it's just passing the fortune and investing all the oil money that literally come out of the ground with no effort.
Besides, and I really don't want to start a debate here, his religion is in no way encouraging innovation. Nor a lot of others things.

Long story short, his business opinions matter to the world as much as those from the bum in the bus station.

Another Jamie Dimon. These filthy riches at/close to government hate bitcoin for a reason. Roll Eyes

They are not at or close.
They are the government, and the parliament, and the presidents, they are everything.
Honestly, they are worse than having a communist dictatorship.

He better get to manipulating the ayatollah to release a public statement. cause not alot of people outside of saudia arabia is going to give a crap about what he thinks.

Saudi Arabia has a mufti not an ayatollah and he is appointed by the king.
And the current one is....really nuts.

Agreed with all of your post except this point
"Besides, and I really don't want to start a debate here, his religion is in no way encouraging innovation. Nor a lot of others things."

I don't agree with that, religion have nothing to do with bitcoin, give any rule in his religion prohibiting bitcoin. we don't want to make a debate as you said before.

Yeah. religion does not have anything to do with the bitcoin. but the general public who are susceptible to manipulative propaganda dont know that.

Saudi arabia is on the USA petrodollar gravy train. The royals are protected under US foreign policy as long as they support USD as the world reserve currency with their oil export.

China has been working to get oil for gold trading going on and it is a big threat to the US. I think the waleed guy has little influence over them but attacking bitcoin is an alternative way to voice support for the United states and their dollar.
