<h2>JPMorgan CEO says his Views on Bitcoin Haven’t Changed much</h2>
Warren Davidson, the Republican Congressman recently asked the CEO of JPMorgan, Jamie Dimon about his views on Bitcoin to which he replied that his views on the flagship currency have not <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/jpmorgan-ceo-not-interested-in-bitcoin-says-his-clients-are/">changed</a> much.

He said:

“My own personal advice to people is to stay away from it. That does not mean the clients don't want it. This goes back to how you have to run a business. I don't smoke marijuana, but if you make it nationally legal, I'm not going to stop our people from banking it. I don't tell people how to spend their money.”

Dimon addressed Bitcoin as a fraud in the year 2017 and added that cryptocurrencies are nothing like <a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/cryptocurrencies-versus-fiat-currencies-a-beginners-guide/">fiat currencies</a> and gold, saying:

“My own personal view is it's nothing like fiat currency, it's nothing like gold. Buyer beware.”

Brett Heath spoke to Kitco News, the financial news outlet on May 28 and compared crypto to the tech induced crash of the early 2000s and the 2008 mortgage crisis, noting that:

“When you look back at the last few decades and you look at all of the financial crises that happened, you know, they all have a couple of things in common. And one of them is the mass adoption of a new financial product or a new technology that's not very well understood.”

In addition to this, he described the cryptocurrencies as a license for the private sector to print money and said:

“If we just rewind to the mortgage crisis of 2008 [...] We had the mass adoption of mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt obligations. And once the public had embraced this, this new financial product then crashed, It was a huge problem.”
