Aleksandar Svetski On Why Bitcoin Is the Ultimate Contrarian’s Bet

Bitcoin Magazine catches up with Aleksandar Svetski, CEO of the Bitcoin company Amber. Svetski argues why now more than ever, “Bitcoin not blockchain” is the best direction in which the cryptocurrency industry should grow. This is one part of his thesis expressed in the interview for why he thinks of himself as a contrarian and as Bitcoin itself as the ultimate contrarian’s bet.
