Michael Burry, known for his role in 'The Big Short,' has criticized Bitcoin, labeling its $100,000 price as 'the most absurd thing.' Speaking on a podcast on December 2, 2025, Burry described the cryptocurrency as 'worthless' and likened it to the infamous tulip mania, suggesting it is 'worse' due to its facilitation of criminal activities. Burry's skepticism towards Bitcoin is longstanding, having previously warned in 2021 that it was a 'speculative bubble' with more risk than reward.
