Max Keiser is a tv-host, investor and crypto enthusiast who has made himself known for his colorful statements.
In the past, he has said, among other things, that bitcoin will outgrow gold, eat all altcoins and make spectacular price rallies. But this is maybe his most outlandish claim yet.
The crypto personality made a statement on Sunday which was, to say the least, bizarre.
Bitcoin impacts our collective unconscious
On Twitter, Max Keiser writes that the terrorist attacks against the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, would not have happened if bitcoin had existed at the time.
The reason, he believes, is that bitcoin “impacts our collective unconscious”, and that this is something that will stop even future terrorist acts.
The crypto website CCN has taken the time to fact-check Max Keiser’s statement and has calculated that it is not correct. The terrorist acts in the world have increased considerably since bitcoin was created in 2009.
