Vocal Bitcoin critic and a prominent economist at The Johns Hopkins University, Steve Hanke, has again taken to Twitter to slam the world’s flagship cryptocurrency – Bitcoin.
He has again stated that Bitcoin is highly speculative, warning the community against it. He added that BTC price is always offering investors and traders a ride on a rollercoaster.
In his tweet, Hanke posted a meme about Bitcoin, which depicts a dog that is only “sometimes friendly”.
#Bitcoin is a speculative asset. Its prices are always a rollercoaster ride. #Bitcoin is no exception. Fasten your seatbelt before entering, and enjoy the ride. pic.twitter.com/fqWNgbQODD
