bill Gates Says NFts and crypto Are '100%' based on Greater Fool theory

比尔盖茨称,非同质化代币和加密数字货币完全建立在“博傻理论”之上

by Alyssa Lukpat

microsoft corp. co-founder bill Gates said he thinks cryptocurrencies and NFts are “100%“ based on the greater fool theory.

微软联合创始人比尔·盖茨称,他认为加密数字货币和非同质化代币完全建立在“博傻理论”之上。

the 66-year-old billionaire was referring to the notion that overvalued assets will keep going up because there are enough people willing to pay high prices for them. he joked that “expensive digital images of monkeys“ would “improve the world immensely.“

这位66岁的亿万富翁指的,是被高估的资产会持续走高这一概念,因为有足够多的人愿意为它们支付高价。他开玩笑说,“那些昂贵的猴子形象的数码图片”将“极大地促进世界发展”。

other wealthy investors and executives, including warren buffett and Jamie dimon, have also expressed skepticism about cryptocurrencies. mr. buffett once called bitcoin “rat poison squared.“

其他富有的投资人和高管们也曾表达对加密数字货币的怀疑。其中就有沃伦·巴菲特和杰米·戴蒙。巴菲特曾把比特币叫做“加强版老鼠药”。

NFts, or nonfungible tokens, are digital proofs of a purchase for goods like art, digital music and sneakers. After surging in popularity, their demand appears to be flatlining recently. Rising interest rates have crushed risky bets across the financial markets—and NFts are among the most speculative.

NFt,或者叫非同质化代币,是购买艺术品、数字音乐和球鞋等商品的电子凭证。在人气飙升之后,最近其需求似乎开始趋于平缓。持续上涨的利率粉碎了整个金融市场的风险投资——而NFt是其中最具投机性的产品之一。

mr. Gates said he preferred asset classes “like a farm where they have the output or a pany where they make products.“

盖茨说,他倾向的资产类型是“像农场一样有产出或者像公司一样制造产品”。

his ments e as bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have slid sharply in recent days amid a broad global market rout, undoing much of the gains at the beginning of the pandemic when a wave of investors started betting on digital currencies.

他发表此番言论之时,正值最近几天比特币和其他加密货币大跌之际,加之全球市场普遍崩盘,使疫情刚开始时积累下的大部分收益化为乌有。彼时,有一大批投资者下注电子货币。

the price of bitcoin recently traded just above $20,000 on wednesday. It has lost more than two-thirds of its value since its record high in November, the fourth worst selloff in the cryptocurrency's 13-year history. Further waves of reckoning have swept through the cryptocurrency industry this week.

周三,比特币的最近交易价仅略高于2万美元。自去年11月创下价格高位纪录以来,比特币已贬值逾三分之二。这是加密数字货币13年历史上第四严重的抛售。本周,几波清算浪潮进一步席卷了整个加密货币行业。

【内容拓展】

比尔·盖茨所说的“expensive digital images of monkeys“指的是“thE boREd ApE YAcht cLUb (bAYc is a collection of 10,000 bored Ape NFts—unique digital collectibles living on the Ethereum blockchain.)“
