Despite the crypto winter and the failure of the crypto exchange FTX, Cuban is optimistic about the future of crypto, stating that the FTX fallout does not mean that crypto has failed. Mark Cuban, a Shark Tank participant and owner of the Dallas Mavericks of the NBA, thinks bitcoin is a good investment and hopes that the price of crypto will continue to decline so that he may buy more, while he mocks gold investors, calling them stupid and dumb.
