This may sound surprising since Buffett has times without number showcased his disinterest in investing in Bitcoin (BTC) or any form of digital currency.
Does Warren Buffett Believe In Bitcoin or Cryptocurrency?
In early 2020, the famous CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, popularly referred to as the Oracle of Omaha, continuously affirmed his disinterest in staking his hard-earned money in any form of cryptocurrency. He clearly spelled out his stance on cryptocurrency, especially Bitcoin, in a Squawk Box interview with CNBC’s Becky Quick.
According to Buffett, cryptocurrency as a whole has no value because it produces nothing.
It’s also worthy of note that the nonagenarian billionaire once described Bitcoin, the first and largest cryptocurrency, as a “rat poison”. In his words, he said Bitcoin is “probably rat poison squared.”
