Bill Gates: I’d Short ‘Crazier, Speculative’ Bitcoin If I Could

Microsoft founder Bill Gates issued critical comments about Bitcoin May 7, telling CNBC it was a “greater fool” investment and he “would short it if he could.”

In comments during the network’s Squawk Box segment, Gates, who in February claimed cryptocurrencies had “caused deaths in a fairly direct way,” nonetheless did not discount the idea of engaging with it himself.

“As an asset class, you're not producing anything and so you shouldn't expect it to go up. It's kind of a pure 'greater fool theory' type of investment,” he said.

Every is entitled to their own opinion and in this case my opinion is that Bill Gates is wrong.  Bitcoin has grown immensely over the past 10 years and i think it will continue to grow over the upcoming years.  I think if someone were to short bitcoin in the long term they will end up losing their entire investments.
