BitMEX CEO Rips Bitcoin ‘Hater’ Roubini, Praises Facebook’s Libra
Bitcoin archnemesis Nouriel Roubini is a “no-coiner hater” who’s upset that he didn’t buy crypto sooner. That’s the opinion of Arthur Hayes, the CEO of the Bitcoin Mercantile Exchange (BitMEX), the world’s largest bitcoin derivatives trading platform.
Arthur Hayes: Roubini Is a Toxic ‘No-Coiner’
Hayes told Bloomberg that Roubini is a disgruntled killjoy who repeats anti-crypto talking points because he’s suffering from FOMO.
“He’s a hater. He’s a no-coiner — someone doesn’t have any bitcoin and watched the price rocket in their face over the past few years.”
Hayes is scheduled to debate Roubini on July 3 at the 2019 Asia Blockchain Summit in Taipei.
Crypto fans are looking forward to a fiery discussion, especially since Hayes and Roubini have been trash-talking each other in the lead-up to the debate.
