Not all that these people say "about cryptos" is wrong, I'll quote some of their words.
Gates told CNBC that Bitcoin is "one of the crazier, speculative things" he's seen, and that he would "short it if there was an easy way to do it."
Warren Buffett wants to make one thing clear: Unlike buying stocks, bonds or real estate, buying bitcoin is not an investment: "You aren't investing when you do that, you're speculating."
I did a quick search and did not find any quote for any of them saying about Bitcoin is a scam.
None of them talked about the technological aspect of the protein but spoke about it economically.
If we review history, most of the talk about bitcoin investment, All back to the beginning of 2017, where the price has risen to more than 1000 dollars, and speculation began to reach 19 thousand dollars.
Also in 2010, no one thought of bitcoin as an investment.
