Anonymity and decentralization do have a disadvantage for cryptocurrency if they are related to the legality of the government. But on the other hand, there are also many other benefits offered if you can reduce the risk factors that exist. The decision is in each of us with all the risks.

I think its because Bill from old school guy.
I dont see any reason to say what cryptos is bad.
Yes they have security problems but its one of the aspects and not bad sides

There's always a lot of hype over any event. I think nobody's a seer and relies on his own experience, so everyone can be mistaken. I advise not to listen to others and rely on your own feelings!

That's Bill Gates opinion but if I should say there are illegal activities both in fiat and crypto so we can't just put illegal to crypto world

He answers about cryptocurrency stating
“The main feature of crypto currencies is their anonymity. I don't think this is a good thing. The Government’s ability to find money laundering and tax evasion and terrorist funding is a good thing. Right now crypto currencies are used for buying fentanyl and other drugs so it is a rare technology that has caused deaths in a fairly direct way. I think the speculative wave around ICOs and crypto currencies is super risky for those who go long.”

He isn't wrong in his sense, if the cryptocurrency is to have a future, they should be able to create an environment of trust between themselves and the authorities.

well some of them are bad indeed znd maybe he meant that there are not many things taht can secure your enough

There is no doubt that Bill Gates is one of the richest men in the world. But I don't think that he is an expert in investing, he is inventor. So his view isn't objective

Bill Gates is a businessman and I smell like there is a fear of Bill Gates on cryptocurrencies  Cheesy, whatever Bill Gates said about the cryptocurrency will not stop the growth of cryptocurrencies. therefore I don't think there is anything to worry about this Bill Gates statement...

His best buddy Warren Buffet is heavily invested in traditional banking systems.  Bill Gates knows the true potential of cryptocurrency but he wants to see it fail.

Do not fall for the propaganda of Bill Gates' charitable donations, he is pushing harmful vaccines and a depopulation agenda on the world.

I have never heard such a statement, but if so, it is a rare case when I disagree with bill gates completely.
I also did not hear such a statement. but if it was true, then I think he was asked to say such things that possibly led to larger money incomes
I personally have never heard him say crypto because I am not always updated about the news at this time. confusing but must be examined if indeed Bill Gates says that

There were a lot of projects that made it to the soft cap just because of anonimity and now all of them require investors to perform KYC. It is sad.

There is sense in what he is saying. We've buried our fabric so deep in decentralisation, such that some scam  ICOs take advantage and ridicule investors. Also, I think regulations should come into play if we want adoption mainstream to be a reality. Large scale investors and big businesses are skeptical because the authorities are against crypto. Decentralisation is superb, yes, but we need regulations in my own opinion. For instance, anyone can create an ERC20 token, promote it and scam multitude while enriching himself.

According to me he is right, there are much bad sides of crypto currencies, they can use them for drug or terrorism of course, but with some changes this can be prevent and for example most of the exchanges want kyc for prevent these things.
Well, I do not deny that crypto still has bad points but instead of trying to look at the bad points of crypto, we should look at the good points that it brings, it helps a lot of people get a good source of income, the rich will become richer. Although Bill Gates said bad things about crypto but I believe he is also someone who is involved in crypto, profit is too attractive and easy, especially when his advantage is too much money, there is no reason to give up this investment opportunity, crypto can be bad but as long as it does not affect us, we also do not need to worry

In world there are many different types of businesses. A man cannot do them all, besides no chance you will be successful in them all. Nowadays the world is full of tricky and untrue news and advertisement. Absorb the info you her, but make your own decisions. There is no way to succeed if you keep following the crows who hasn't done it yet.

He's exaggerating. Everywhere you can find loopholes to do evil deeds, to buy forbidden things, drugs.

Crypto is a big game. Where there is a lot of money, there is no truth. Many respected people very quickly change their point of view. I think that crypto has a bright future. I do not doubt it for a minute.

Bill Gates is not the only one who says that the cryptocurrency is not good, but the cryptocurrency still exists, it still gives us the opportunity to make money, I think this is enough!

Bill can and will say anything about any subject that doesn't support his interest as a capitalist. So, we really should not care about his saying.
I agree. People are here to make opinions, and Bill Gates is not an exception. It is just his opinion, it doesn't mean it is truth. His opinion didn't affect me as a participant of the cryptomarket.

Its remarks are usually objective. He may not say that bitcoin is not good, but many altcoins ICO are not good. These products will cause many investors to go bankrupt, and only a few investors can make money. Bill Gates’s remarks are not directed at Bitcoin. What it says is the altcoin.
