Jamie Dimon Says Crypto Only Good For ”Criminal Activities”
Teng came to crypto’s defense after yet another anti-crypto tirade from Dimon before the US Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs committee on Dec. 6.
Dimon said that the only use cases for crypto is money laundering, criminal activities, drug trafficking, and tax avoidance.
“If I was the government, I’d close it down,” he said. “I’ve always been opposed to crypto, Bitcoin, etcetera.”

The Data: Since 2000, regulators fined banks 7,400+ times totaling to fines of $380+ Billion.
Banks should stay silent.
