You sure Bill Gates doesn't have investment in cryptocurrency? I watched a video of him on YouTube promoting Bitcoin. He specifically said something like "No one can destroy Bitcoin''.
Are you really watch a video on YouTube ? Wherein Bill Gate was promoting of bitcoin and if these a video is really you watch, so then that's will be very good for  bitcoin and due to this, bitcoin will be goes to more establishment without any difficulties.

Sorry, he actually said:  "Nobody can Stop Bitcoin".

Bill Gates is a humanbeing like us, by the way.
Whether he is Bitcoin investor or not won't stop people from investing.


Here is the video:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=k0HmrSfJwhU


Noone can destroy bitcoin because it's what the people want and won't give up. Bill Gates supports Bitcoin but he could buy them all. So he doesn't have any reason to buy then as he is already very rich.

How can you know that he doesn't owned some bitcoins?
But why he would put his head in that if he managed himself with money till the end of his and his grandchildren life?!

But what is the reason why he do not invest funds in cryptocurrencies?
He already had his jobs to do, he needed to take focus in his jobs so that he could make a lot of money too, he didn't even need to invest in Bitcoin as he had a lot of real project to make investment in.

There is an interesting story from a guy named Sakip Sabanci who is one of the richest business man in Turkey(RIP, he was also a great charitable man). Before i tell the story, please note that his family´s fortune is over $8 billion which is 15 times less than Bill Gates.

He says that due to an emergancy he once needed to take a cab. When he arrived his destination he realized that he had no money in his wallet. So, he had to apology to driver and give him his personal number. He also added that the driver didn´t want to take money and said it was okay when he apologied(He was a very much loved person among Turkish people). He said that the driver never called him back but he found him since he wrote down the car number.

This story was told on a TV interview after facing a question about how much money he had in his pocket. He never had any and he said that it´s because he never needed money. People like them are too rich to use currencies in daily life. It might be difficult for us to understand it for the rest of us.

They have helicopters, bodyguards, private car with drivers. If he ever needed to go to bank, he would go to a bank which he owns. They have a different daily life i suppose. And bitcoin? I don´t think so...

Why would these people Bill Gates to invest in bitcoin. Nobody knows what will happen to this currency in the future. Cryptocurrency is very similar to a pyramid. The person who made the capital their own hands will not risk his fortune in such projects.

This is what I often tell myself

Though not in respect to the dudes whose wealth is measured in terms of money. I mean people who don't need money altogether, even billions (let alone pocket money). I don't mean the wealthy elite, I mean the power elite. Basically, if you have power, you don't need money at all, you can just come and take everything without any money if such a need should arise. But since you have the power, such a need simply can't arise, so money as such essentially ceases to exist for you. You are at the top of the food chain, and money is meaningless to you

Bitcoin userbase is continuously growing day by day and I believe in just 4 to 5 years, the rich people will also see the potential of bitcoin and will start investing in it too.

If Billy boy came out and said that he has invested in Bitcoin what would you do? will you invest all your life in it? what changes if he has some Bitcoins?
These questions are stupid as asking if Bill Gates goes to the WC to take a dump. lol
He could be using Bitcoin right now without any of us know anything about it, that's the beauty of Bitcoin.

But more or less, bill gates never heard of bitcoin. But if Bill Gates invest in bitcoin there is no detailed information if he followed the bitcoin. Bill Gates is one of the world's richest examples.

If he participates with bitcoin. I think bitcoin will get closer to the moon  Wink

first of all I think bill gates is the person who is already famous and genuinely respected even to those who still don't know about him. only because when he was famous he gained even more respect and now he is at the top. there is no reason for bill gates too invest in bitcoin but as he is a human so I guess he can actually invest in it someday

oh please do you understand what are you talking? That man is so rich and why the hell does he wants to be more rich? He has so much money that he can't to spend all during his life. He can to purchase almost all bitcoin but why? Tell me one factor why he has to invest in bitcoin, what will he get? Nothing. And buying bitcoins doesn't means that you are respected.

Yeah that's really true. That man has already reached a level which is completely in hormony of beautiful life. He doesn't need anymore money and he would create something but won't invest his money into anything like bitcoin. I think he will want his life to be spent with family now, and don't need any huddles by investing into crypto.

I would bet that Bill has purchased at least 10 million worth of BTC and ETH. 10 mill is chump change to him, if I would do it why wouldn't one of the smartest and richest guys do it.

He's rich but he is also wise, he won't waste money just for fun. He's way of thinking is always profit and for the good of the people. He probably have an idea already about bitcoin but no one really knows if he's in or not.

Bill Gates stated that bitcoin is better than currency:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6KRp91YAw8

I'm sure he owns bitcoin.

I think -- maybe -- he does have some, probably for study, because of his interest in securing future financial transactions using blockchain tech.

He may be thinking about it as some sort of investment like maybe creating one which is regulated -- based on his stance via interviews, and his involvement in the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance.

Based on his interview, he does like the idea of a technology that allows users to make relatively inexpensive and fast transactions but has some reservations with bitcoin in terms of pseudonymity concerns. Hence, his involvement in developing private blockchains on the ethereum platform ( https://www.entrepreneur.com/article/238103 and http://fortune.com/2017/02/28/ethereum-jpmorgan-microsoft-alliance/ )

I don't know but when it comes to investment the billionaire that will always come up in mind is Warren Buffet in which is known for investment techniques in a variety of way from stocks to real estate he knows it all. Right now I don't see any news of Warren Buffet related to Bitcoin, or at least him voicing out his idea on it. Bill Gates on the other hand is totally invested in his company which is Microsoft in which he is currently focus on getting some market share away from Apple's Mac for his Surface Book Laptops.

Well if not mistaken he do know about this technology and he also quotes some positive things about bitcoin and cyptocurrency. So he would have invested for sure considering the positive side of bitcoin and its usefulness it provide to individuals and organizations. If he comes openly and say anything good about this will help to surge bitcoin prices.  Smiley
