<h3>Warren Buffet's Stance With Cryptocurrencies</h3>
Warren has long been a critic of cryptocurrencies. In a recent interview, he went as far as to call Bitcoin delusional. This is one of the kindest names he has given to cryptocurrencies, having called them 'rat poisons' last year. However, he praises blockchain technology and states there is much potential in it.

In his most recent interview, he stated:
<blockquote>"Bitcoin has no unique value at all. It doesn’t produce anything. You can stare at it all day and no little bitcoins come out. It’s a delusion basically.”</blockquote>
His stance is therefore pretty clear. One might wonder why Sun paid $4.6 million to have lunch with him and try to change his mind? Well, its simple, Warren Buffet is one of the most influential people in the world. If he supported the industry, this would be a major step forward toward mainstream adoption.

Justin Sun has also revealed that he has always been a huge fan of the billionaire.

Litecoin founder, Charlie Lee, Head of Binance charity, Helen Hai, and Circle CEO Charlie Allaire.
