In an opinion piece titled “Why America Should Ban Crypto,” published Wednesday by the Wall Street Journal, Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger urged the US government to ban cryptocurrency. “A cryptocurrency is not a currency, a commodity, or a security,” the Berkshire executive wrote. Instead, it’s a gambling contract with a nearly 100% house advantage.” “Obviously, the United States should now enact a new federal law that prevents this from happening,” Munger added.
