Warren Buffett, once the richest man on the planet, has been quite vocal when it comes to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, as per a recent report, it has been confirmed that Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, an American multinational conglomerate holding company, has invested in Nubank, a Brazilian fintech bank.

Berkshire Hathaway sold the stake in Visa and Mastercard

As per the report, Berkshire Hathaway has sold all the stakes in Visa and Mastercard, and it seems that the firm has decided to invest in Nubank. It is to be noted that the firm has invested as much as a billion dollars in Nubank while selling around $3.1 billion stakes in Visa and Mastercard. 

Around 40 million shares were acquired in Q4 2021 when Berkshire Hathaway sold Visa, and Mastercard stocks, said an SEC filing on Feb 14. This adds a new multi-billion dollar firm to the growing list of firms that have participated in the crypto industry in one way or the other. 

Warren Buffett singing alternate tunes

Warren Buffett has called Bitcoin a “rat poison squared,” as per a report from CNBC. “In terms of cryptocurrencies, generally, I can say with almost certainty that they will come to a bad ending,” added Buffett. 
“If I could buy a five-year put on every one of the cryptocurrencies, I’d be glad to do it, but I would never short a dime’s worth.”
However, it seems that the billionaire has gone back on his own statement and now decided to invest in the world’s biggest cryptocurrency via Nubank. On the other hand, the Vice-Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway had recently lashed out against the world’s biggest cryptocurrency wishing that it’d “never been invested.”

“Believe me, the people who are creating cryptocurrencies are not thinking about the customer. They are thinking about themselves,” said Munger.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

Then you don’t pay. If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked.
