In a CNBC appearance this morning, US House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy positioned Bitcoin and digital currencies as geo-politically important, especially with respect to China.
CNBC anchor Joe Kernen noted that Congressman McCarthy came on CNBC in 2019 with a "very positive" view of bitcoin, and then asked: "Do you think [Secretary Yellen and Fed Chair Powell] have a good understanding of digital currencies or bitcoin at this point?", to which the Congressman replied:
Well, I think I was right then, and I'm right now. I think they tried to ignore it to make it go away. Jamie Dimon will tell you that from the beginning he was wrong. This is moving towards the future. They should not ignore it. They should not only learn more about it, but the basis is gonna continue to grow. And this is something that those who regulate, those who are in government that make policy, better start understanding what it means for the future because other countries are moving forward, especially China. I do not want America to fall behind. I want the next century to be ours. That's why I want to look forward, not backwards, and not keep my head in the sand.
