Recently, Gates said in an interview that he is not optimistic about Bitcoin. On the one hand, Bitcoin consumes a lot of energy and is not good for environmental protection; on the other hand, people's investment in the Bitcoin craze is risky, "If you are not as rich as Musk, then you should probably be careful."
Gates said: "Elon (Musk) has a lot of money and he is very sophisticated, so I don't worry that his Bitcoin will rise and fall randomly. But I do think that those who bought in the Bitcoin craze may not have so much spare money. So I am not optimistic about Bitcoin. My overall idea is that if you don't have as much money as Elon, you should still be careful."
Recently, Bill Gates said in an interview with another media that he does not hold Bitcoin and will not short Bitcoin, so he has a neutral attitude towards Bitcoin. Three years ago, Bill Gates criticized Bitcoin from beginning to end and said that if he had Bitcoin, he would short it without hesitation.
