- thawaya3113 5y agoHow much sway does the “average journalist” have on Tech matters relative to, let’s say, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Thiel, Jack Dorsey, etc. who have all publicly promoted crypto currency? Thiel literally was calling out bank CEOs and Warren Buffett a day or so ago for preventing the future.
- otterley 5y agoThey’re not preventing the future so much as they are not buying into the hype. That speech from Thiel was totally unprofessional and ill-suited to man of his station. If he’s so confident about crypto, he doesn’t need to insult successful people to achieve his aims. I’ll take the classiness of a Warren Buffet over that meanness any day.
