Top Silicon Valley investor blasts Warren Buffett: Bitcoin's number one enemy!

On Thursday, top Silicon Valley investor Peter Thiel presented what he called a "list of enemies" trying to stop the growth of cryptocurrencies at the Bitcoin 2022 conference in Miami, with Warren Buffett, the "God of Stocks," at the top of the list.

Peter Thiel called Buffett a "sociopathic grandfather" after he previously questioned the value of cryptocurrencies and called bitcoin "rat poison.

In addition to Buffett, Peter Thiel also denounced JPMorgan CEO Dimon and BlackRock CEO Fink. He argued that "they need to put some of their money into bitcoin."

Peter Thiel predicts that the price of bitcoin, which he expects could rise 100-fold, currently stands at about $43,000, down about 30% from its all-time high last November.

He noted that more institutions will need to see widespread use of the cryptocurrency before it reaches $4.3 million.

Peter Thiel is a top Silicon Valley investor and co-founder of PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL), Palantir Technologies Inc (NYSE:PLTR), according to publicly available information.
