According to Cointelegraph, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman called Bitcoin a super logical step on the technology tree, which is not controlled by the government and helps fight corruption.
“I’m excited about bitcoin,” Altman told Joe Rogan on “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast Oct. 6.
“I think the idea that we have a global currency that’s not controlled by any one government is a very logical and important step on the technology tree.”
Altman, also the founder of Worldcoin, has long been a supporter of Bitcoin. In a blog post 10 years ago, Altman argued that the world would be more transparent in a world of Bitcoin transactions.
“In a world where we all use Bitcoin to transact, there will be more transparency, and financial transparency is very important. It’s perhaps the most important thing to reduce corruption,” Altman said.
