A renowned investor who gained fame during the 2008 financial crisis has resurfaced with a bold stance on cryptocurrency markets. He recently suggested that Bitcoin lacks intrinsic value, drawing parallels to one of history's most infamous speculative episodes—the 17th-century Dutch tulip mania. The comparison highlights ongoing debate within investment circles about whether digital assets possess genuine economic foundation or primarily thrive on speculative momentum. This perspective underscores the persistent skepticism among traditional finance voices regarding cryptocurrency valuations, particularly as Bitcoin continues its volatile market trajectory.

Using the tulip meme again? It's been so long, but you're still using it.

Here we go again, the same old tulip argument... This guy really doesn't understand on-chain economics, does he?

Another old-timer benchmarking against Tulip? Wake up, buddy. Bitcoin's over a decade of operational history is right here.

Wait, are we going to talk about tulips again? I'm tired of hearing this argument...
