Not Warren Buffett, this is the real king of 'Bitcoin is dead' club
It's not everyday that one comes across gems like this, but while scrolling the internet recently, a website called "Bitcoin Is Dead" appeared.
No, the website isn't waging a crusade against Bitcoin.
On the contrary, it keeps track of all the prominent public personalities, experts, and traditional media who once or often wrote the obituaries for the world's largest cryptocurrency, the market cap of which now rivals that of the world's largest companies like Alphabet (Nasdaq: GOOGL) and Amazon (Nasdaq: AMZN).
From the Nobel Prize-winning economist Eric Maskin to The Washington Post's assistant op-ed editor Drew Goins, the website keeps track of nearly every public figure announcing the death of Bitcoin.
The website also maintains a "Hall of Fame," which features the most famous public figures in ascending order of the number of times they have announced the death of Bitcoin.
Funnily enough, veteran investor Warren Buffett, who once referred to Bitcoin as “probably rat poison squared,” doesn't feature at the top of the list. Instead, the economist Peter Schiff, who is extremely skeptical of Bitcoin and bullish on gold, tops the "Hall of Fame."
While Schiff has announced Bitcoin dead on 18 occasions, Buffett lags far behind with eight such declarations.
Economists Steve Hanke, Nouriel Roubini, Paul Krugman, and Kevin Dowd also feature on the list Finance journalists Brett Arends and John Crudele and famous researcher Nicholas Weaver also find mentions Jamie Dimon, the billionaire CEO of the banking giant JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM), is also part of the top 10 list.
Bitcoin, which hit an all-time high (ATH) of $124,457.12 on Aug. 14, was trading at $112,316.54, down 1.35% a day.
