Craig Wright named bitcoin with a pyramid scheme

In an interview with The Times, Craig Wright, the self-proclaimed creator of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, compared Bitcoin to Bernie Madoff’s pyramid scheme. He said:

 

The price goes up because people pay. But this cannot last forever. Charles Ponzi did it. And Mr. Madoff … In the end, people will leave.

 

Wright believes that bitcoin has failed as a form of payment:

 

“Digital gold is boring. In the first section [whitepaper биткоина] talking about micropayments, which were the Holy Grail. ”

 

In an interview, he again identified himself as the creator of bitcoin and noted that his family is now one of the richest in the world (despite the fact that he never got access to bitcoins in the Tulip Trust case).

While Bitcoin is again close to the $ 50,000 mark, and its fork Bitcoin SV, which Wright supports, dropped to 17th place in the CoinMarketCap ranking.
