JAN3 chief reacts to Solomon's Bitcoin statement
The CNBC Squawk Box team interviewed David Solomon at the Olympics, discussing various issues related to Goldman Sachs and its policies, including the chances of the Fed Reserve cutting down interest rates this year.
Among the things discussed was the worldâs top cryptocurrency, Bitcoin. The head of the banking giant admitted that even though he believes Bitcoin to be a speculative asset and does not see any real use case for it, he still thinks that it may just have store-of-value case for Bitcoin.
This was shared by the head of research at Bitwise, Ryan Rasmussen. Samson Mow commented on that with a GIF meme from the popular TV series "Game of Thrones," "Bend the knee," adding, "I don't make the rules."

According to his earlier statements on the X platform, Mow believes that within the next year, Bitcoin is likely to reach a whopping $1 million price level. Therefore, he believes more and more entities are going to be acquiring Bitcoin and admitting its new status as a treasury asset.

Over the past two days, the worldâs leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, demonstrated a plunge of 5.8% as it plummeted from the recently recovered $70,000 level to the $65,770 zone. It happened as the U.S. government once again transferred a Bitcoin lump worth several billion U.S. dollars, confiscated from the Silk Road darknet marketplace. By now, BTC has printed a small recovery and is changing hands at $66,300.
