CEO-ul JPMorgan, Jamie Dimon, spune că tot îi va sfătui pe oameni să stea departe de bitcoin

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon’s views on bitcoin haven’t changed much over the past few years. For his part, Dimon still thinks one shouldn’t invest in bitcoin.

La o auzul virtual hosted by the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services on Thursday, Dimon said bitcoin is not supported by any assets and “something that’s not supported by anything I do not believe has much value.”

“My own personal advice to people is to stay away from it,” said Dimon. He was responding to a question by Ohio Representative Warren Davidson, un congresman prietenos cu cripto.

While Dimon’s personal views on bitcoin haven’t changed, there seems to be a notable change in his tone about it. Dimon said his opinion doesn’t mean JPMorgan clients don’t want expunerea la bitcoin.

Acest lucru se întoarce la modul în care trebuie să conduci o afacere, a spus Dimon, dând exemplul marijuanei.

“I don’t smoke marijuana, but if you make it nationally legal, I’m not going to stop our people from banking it and etc.,” said Dimon. “I don’t tell people how to spend their money regardless of how I might personally feel about some of the items that people might buy with their money.”

To that end, JPMorgan is “debating” whether it should make bitcoin available in some “safe” way, said Dimon.

Eventually, Dimon thinks that regulators should step in and regulate industries such as crypto. “I do think the regulators who are a day late and a dollar short should be paying more attention to the future, payment for order flow, high-frequency trading, cryptocurrency, and put a legal, regulatory framework around it.”

Goldman și alți bancheri 

CEO-ul Goldman Sachs, David Solomon, a mai spus la audiere că există cerere de criptomonede de la clienți.

“There is no question both institutions and individuals are looking for exposure to bitcoin,” said Solomon, responding to a question from New Jersey Representative Josh Gottheimer.

Goldman Sachs, therefore, tries to provide information to clients around this “potential asset class,” said Solomon.

La începutul acestei luni, Goldman Sachs a format o echipă de tranzacționare cu criptomonede. Și, ca parte a lansării sale inițiale, banca a executat tranzacții forward neliverabile pe bitcoin și tranzacții futures bitcoin CME pe bază principală, toate cu decontare în numerar.

But similar to JPMorgan’s Dimon, Solomon is also “extremely cautious” about bitcoin.

He said if lots of people believe in something, it can sustain value for a period of time, but bitcoin’s use cases and regulatory oversight are unclear. “There’s still a lot of work to do around this,” said Solomon.

La audiere au fost prezenți și alți megabancheri, inclusiv CEO-ul Bank of America, Brian Moynihan, CEO-ul Citigroup, Jane Fraser, și CEO-ul Wells Fargo, Charles Scharf. Toți au împărtășit o viziune similară despre cripto, spunând că procedează cu prudență.

Pentru asta, reprezentantul Minnesota Tom Emmer, a crypto-friendly congressman, said, “it seems to be a theme” among the bankers in attendance.
