Kathleen Breitman, Tezos co-founder, criticized Bitcoin’s status as a store of value during a recent market crash, calling it "internet pretend money." She compared the current sell-off to early COVID-19 reactions, where fears of recession led to rapid selling of speculative assets. Despite the downturn, she acknowledged Bitcoin's core utility and potential growth as it mainstreams, but rejected its store-of-value narrative as a "decimated" meme.
