So...like normal money then? You cant just dismiss something like this just because some people use it for bad stuff. I'm sure a terrorist or drug dealer has used windows before, oh no that must mean windows is bad.
Idiot.
Tch, bet he's just mad he didn't buy the dip.... :smug:

The TLDR version is Criminals will still be criminals but it's easier with crypto, which is a fair observation.
What about blasting corporatism where it causes death in very direct ways across the nation and world? Oh yeah, because he's one of the people who benefited from it.

I wonder if Bill knows that official currency is also used for terrorist activities, and that defense contractor corporatists help fund them?
ISIScoin

He's not simply talking about people making illegal purchases with cryptocurrencies. He's talking about the cryptocurrency-specific anonymity making it much more difficult for criminals to be held accountable for their actions compared to regular currency.
The whataboutism seems misplaced here IMO. He was asked for his opinion on crypto, and he gave his opinion on crypto-specific characteristics (anonymity and speculative waves). He doesn't need to weigh these risk factors against those of regular currency, that wasn't part of the question.
Bill Gates is a solid guy. From his massive donations to his boots-on-thr-ground activism, he's probably one of the most altruistic folks I know of.
And he can jump over an office chair with a slight running start so
