Howard Marks, who has called past market bubbles, says 'I don't understand what's behind bitcoin'arks, who has called past market bubbles, says 'I don't understand what's behind bitcoin'

The co-chairman of Oaktree Capital is widely known for his investment memos, which predicted the financial crisis and the dot-com bubble implosion.

"Maybe I'm just too old and too much of a dinosaur to understand bitcoin," Marks said jokingly.

I think may be he should just shut up or not talking down about Bitcoin anymore.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

Maybe he should read more about Bitcoin. The way I see it is he has really no time to examine the digital currency revolution as he is busy with his business and other concerns. So maybe instead of commenting anything he should just pause and maybe shut off for the time being. I don't care if he predicted a thousand bubbles in the past.
