I am so glad to hearing these from a very successful person like him. This gives us a sense of acknowledgement. Nonetheless, I think the goal of Alibaba in pushing a cashless society is at par with the idea of Bitcoin that all things business can take place online. He might not have indicated precisely the strength of cryptocurrencies, but he have impliedly supposed it is powerful. These statements are very telling. What do you think you guys?
LOL, I think he prefer BTC rather BCH. Alipay is layer 2 settlement.
