Wales Receives Backlash for Bitcoin Critique
Jimmy Wales, co-founder of Wikipedia, faced a series of critiques from users of the X app over his recent comments questioning the reliability of Bitcoin (BTC) compared to traditional assets. The American-British internet entrepreneur recently painted a scenario where he claimed to have lost his bank password, resulting in the loss of his entire net worth. Wales stated, “No, actually, it didn’t happen because banks work and Bitcoin doesn’t.”
Notably, the founder of Wikipedia has not always felt this way about Bitcoin, as there was a period when he “tested the waters” by investing a certain amount into a BTC pool. This was also the time when Wikipedia started accepting Bitcoin donations. However, his “hatred” towards Bitcoin began to shape in 2017, and since then, he has been consistently expressing this anti-Bitcoin sentiment.
특히 Wikipedia의 창립자는 BTC 풀에 일정 금액을 투자하여 "물을 테스트"한 기간이 있었기 때문에 Bitcoin에 대해 항상 이런 식으로 생각한 것은 아닙니다. Wikipedia가 비트코인 기부를 받기 시작한 시기이기도 합니다. 그러나 비트코인에 대한 그의 '증오'는 2017년부터 형성되기 시작했고, 그 이후로 그는 이러한 반비트코인 감정을 꾸준히 표현해 왔습니다.
Wales’s vocal criticisms were vehemently rebuked by XRP supporter and attorney John E. Deaton and Dogecoin founder Billy Markus. Deaton, widely known for his defense in the Ripple vs. SEC case, began sharing a similar personal experience, claiming to have attempted to withdraw $19,000 in cash from a traditional bank at one point. According to Deaton’s account, the transaction was significantly delayed, and the bank manager was unreachable at the time.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin added 144 more blocks to its chain, typically running smoothly without hindrance. The pro-XRP attorney evaluated the banking situation, stating that Bitcoin would be more effective and suitable in such an event.

Markus discussed a donation-raising application on the Wikipedia platform, echoing a sentiment shared by Erik Voorhees, the founder and former CEO of Coinapult.
Responding directly to claims that Bitcoin doesn’t work, Markus said, “Wikipedia doesn’t still make you because they didn’t tell you about it ten years ago,” emphasizing that users are still encouraged to donate when visiting the site.
In his response, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino indicated a more steadfast stance, highlighting that Wales’s company Wikipedia would soon be replaced by a decentralized alternative.
이에 대해 Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino는 웨일즈 회사인 Wikipedia가 곧 분산형 대안으로 대체될 것임을 강조하면서 보다 확고한 입장을 밝혔습니다.
