Dimon Under Fire For Bitcoin Comments

JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon has been having a rough week. He couldn't help but again disparage Bitcoin, calling it a fraud and now it seems his comments have come back to bite him.

Today Alex Gurevich, a former JPMorgan executive, called out Dimon on twitter stating

“Jamie, you’re a great boss and the greatest of all-time (GOAT) bank CEO. You’re not a trader or tech entrepreneur. Please, STFU about trading bitcoin.”

It seems Gurevich is not the only one getting in on the action. Bitcoin Core Developer Peter Todd, who was also taken back by Dimon’s statement, dispatched Dimon for his lack of knowledge. Todd told Dimon “Hey Jamie: next time you want to write something about how awful Bitcoin is, let me ghostwrite it. I can do a much better job than you.”

It seems not many are in agreement with Dimon on the future of Bitcoin, yet that may wholly depend on what circles one runs in. Whether it's the world of tech startups, entrepreneurs, and advocates for a more decentralized and free society, or elite bankers with piles of money.
