Nassim Taleb, author and philosopher of the cult “Black Swan”, said that regulatory uncertainty in the cryptocurrency market has laid the groundwork for civil lawsuits.
“Bitcoin will be a goldmine for lawyers. When regulation is blurred, there are many opportunities for civil litigation (in addition to criminal ones like Milken) when junk bonds collapse. If you bought a cryptocurrency based on a clear recommendation, make sure you have a screenshot,” Taleb wrote.
He also stated that he views bitcoin as an “intelligence test”. According to him, the meaning of blockchain technology is to exclude third parties from the chain of financial interactions such as custody services. However, the philosopher explained that big crypto holders like MicroStrategy use their deposit accounts.
In the comments to the publication, they noted that Michael Saylor’s company only keeps 15% of its assets in a deposit account. Taleb said MicroStrategy used collateral held by the custodian to fund its operations.
Recall that in February 2022, Taleb said that Bitcoin will not save investors from inflation and falling markets.
