Right when the weekend started, users were hit with massive news regarding Bitcoin’s valuation and market performance, which showed another dip in its track. Bitcoin dropped again, and it previously saw its valuation dip below $20,000, something that most users did not expect as there were some fluxes on its graph that said it would rise.
It is the first time since November 2020’s drop, and users were devastated by this, as many still hope to see the cryptocurrency rise and soar during these times. The top cryptocurrency is volatile, and so is the whole market, with no security on holding its valuation despite many users actively trading the coin.
Nevertheless, Bitcoin’s performance now is massive, and according to CoinMarketCap, it is on the rise. It recently rose to $20,000 and jumped more than six percent over the last 24 hours.
Some believe in cryptocurrency, like the El Salvadorian President, and some doubt it. One of the many non-believers in the blockchain industry is Bill Gates, the former CEO and co-founder of Microsoft. He stated in an interview that the NFT is not something he would venture into despite its prominence.
Gates said that NFTs are based on the “Greater Fool Theory,” which talks about buying something that one thinks would gain more and thrive on, as opposed to how much they originally purchased it. People buy NFTs for investment, and when their valuation rises, it will be up to them to sell them again or hold on to them.
The Microsoft co-founder is not buying it and is not convinced of its potential now.
