Peter? Thought he did very well in that interview, he was pulling no punches with the comebacks too

Is the person talking at 04:16 Peter Vessenes? Googling him doesn't show up any photo.

No, that's Michael McKee, a bloomberg "analyst". Indeed he doesn't know what he's talking about, and Peter did well answering him.

Funny, so a second crash within a few days is less concerning because they have seen it before?

And they then went on comparing it scarcity like gold. Still quite sarcastic about Bitcoin but kind of attracted to it's possibilities.

The crashes making headlines, and that's an up.

I said 04:16 for a reason. Anyway, I got my answers so thank you.

The naysayers like Michael McKee are making a big mistake. They are not going to gain anything by disparaging Bitcoin.

If Bitcon fails, their reward will be the right to say "I told you so", but nobody will care.

If Bitcoin succeeds, they will regret it because they will look stupid forever. It reminds me of the people laughing at Peter Schiff and saying there is no housing bubble. Now, when I see them (which is very rare) I just think about how they are just pretending to have a clue.
