Apparently, the voice of the old traditional bankers, the vitriol of Jamie Dimon on Bitcoin a few months ago was giving the tone to the opinions of this traditionalist race. There is opposition of course, but not surprisingly, the opposition also comes from younger and more modern thinkers.

Old vs New
As rhetoric and vitriol have cast discredit on Bitcoin by bankers Gradually, it becomes more and more obvious that there is fear and uncertainty in the market.Banks have a monopoly of money for more of a century, but there are upheavals
