ECB President Christine Lagarde ‘confident Bitcoin won’t enter reserves in EU’

Image
In a meeting following the European Central Bank’s (ECB) interest rate cut announcement, the bank’s President, Christine Lagarde, reiterated her long-standing criticism of cryptocurrencies in general, and Bitcoin (BTC) in particular. The central bank president, who stated that crypto was worth ‘nothing’ back in 2022, and later revealed that her son had lost roughly 60% of his investment in digital currencies, was asked to comment on Czech National Bank (CNB) Governor Aleš Michl’s Bitcoin acquisition plan — which would see the CNB allocate up to 5% of its total reserves to the leading cryptocurrency. At press time, Bitcoin was changing hands at $106,330 — having marked an 11.62% increase in price since the beginning of the year.
