The farewell of Warren Buffett as Director General of Berkshire Hathaway ended with a paradox that will affect the Bitcoin markets for months. A few moments after “the oracle of Omaha”, aged 94, confirmed that the vice -president Greg Abel will assume the first job when 2025 will rely on an end, the most famous value investor in the world has delivered a radical warning on the long -term corrosion of government money – an argument which, stripped of its intention of its author, indicates as a specific thesis Bitcoin.
Buffett still does not receive Bitcoin
Of the Omaha Chi Health Center scene, Buffett said The shareholders that the greatest threat to capital is not a lower market or a recession, but “the trend of a government to want to degrade its currency over time”. “If you have people who control the currency, you can issue a paper money and you will,” he said, adding that “the natural course of the government is to make the currency less over time, and that has important consequences.” He concluded that “we would not want to own anything we thought in a currency that really went in hell.”
These sentences, delivered without reference to Bitcoin, echoed via Crypto X in a few seconds. Pseudonym commentator of the BTC Carl Menger interpreter They as inadvertent approval of a non -sovereign alternative, writing that Buffett “suggests that it could be wise” to have many other currencies' in addition to the US dollar. Almost as a decentralized and non -sovereign currency could solve this problem. “Menger then struck that the nonagenarian” still cannot enter the value of Bitcoin and rather stacks other Shitcoins Fiat. “
Michael Saylor, executive president of microstrategy – in 2023 said“Bitcoin is the answer to the question that mystifies Warren Buffett” – gave up criticism on Saturday, calling Berkshire “Bitcoin of the 20th century”. The contrast is austere: while Berkshire's cash cup swelled at $ 347.7 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2025, against $ 334.2 billion three months earlier, Saylor converted each Dollar of BTC spare business.
Buffett's decision to sit on a record indicates that, in his opinion, the evaluations of actions remain little appetizing; For Bitcoin defenders, it is still proof that Fiat liquidity is better redeployed in hard digital assets rather than slow motion in Treasury bills and Bills in T.
However, “The Catch” is that Buffett's philosophical alignment with the Hawks of its monetary discharge does not change its personal verdict on Bitcoin. He always considers the assets with an unlimited contempt. In 2018, he called it “probably a rascal poison in the square”.
In 2020, he told CNBC that cryptocurrencies had “no value and that they produced nothing”, and at the meeting of shareholders of 2022, he said that he would not buy the entire Bitcoin offer for $ 25 because “it will do nothing”. The staging on Saturday did nothing to soften these views; The man who transformed a textile factory wading into a conglomerate of $ 1.16 Billion remains attached to productive companies on digitally rare basic products.
At the time of the press, BTC exchanged $ 94,629.
