Thiel, who since 2018 has raised millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin through his company Founders Fund, also criticized JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon and BlackRock CEO Larry Flynn.

He presented large graphics with photos of the two executives and their negative comments about Bitcoin. These graphics contained the word “gerontocracy“.

At one point he showed a picture of Buffett with the words “rat poison”, which the Berskshire chief had used in the past about Bitcoin. Another image showed Buffett’s statement “I do not and will not own (cryptocurrencies).”

Berkshire, however, as Thiel recalled, invested $1 billion this year in Brazil’s Nubank, an online bank that is extremely popular with cryptocurrency investors.
