What Cuban personally thinks about Bitcoin?
American Entrepreneur Cuban has previously claimed point-blank that Bitcoin is not “friction-free” implying it should be easy-to-use until a point where even the Grandma’s could use it. Cuban thinks that we are still dependent on fiat no matter what. He added, “Right now, you still have to convert it for anything you want.”
He has been very expressive and outspoken about his views regarding cryptocurrency from the starting as well as the barriers faced during transacting with it. He is literally against the fact that it is an alternative to Gold. In fact, he believes that Gold is more of a “no-brainer” and is easily understandable. Cuban expressed the above facts to Pompaliano while he was asked certain questions about what alters his mind about Bitcoin.
He feels that everyone is still arguing about it and considering so many debates and opinions about Bitcoin proves the point itself.
