0 11

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan, recently affirmed
his longstanding stance against Bitcoin. In a recent interview with Bloomberg
TV, the CEO of JP Morgan labeled the leading digital asset a
“fraud” and a “Ponzi Scheme.” According to Dimon, Bitcoin lacks the fundamental
qualities necessary to function as a currency.

Dimon Labels Bitcoin a “Ponzi Scheme”

“Crypto, if you mean crypto like Bitcoin, I’ve
always said it’s a fraud. If they think there is a currency, there’s no hope for
it. It’s a Ponzi scheme, it’s a public decentralized,” Dimon mentioned. He dismissed it as a speculative
asset, emphasizing his belief that those who view it as a legitimate form of
money are misguided.

Despite acknowledging Bitcoin’s role within modern
financial markets, Dimon does not believe that the token has the potential to
function as a currency. This latest statement by Dimon is consistent with his
previous comments against Bitcoin.

Throughout the years, he has consistently expressed
skepticism about the cryptocurrency, citing concerns over its volatility and
lack of regulation. Despite the growing acceptance of Bitcoin by mainstream
institutions, Dimon’s stance has not changed.
