At the end of last week, the head of the Central Bank of Japan, Haruhiko Kuroda, criticized bitcoin and called it a speculative instrument.
Before this, the cryptocurrency was attacked by the leaders of the Central Banks of Canada, Great Britain, and several other countries. Now they are joined by Derville Rowland, who heads the Bank of Ireland.
She told investors that buying bitcoin comes with great risks. You need to be prepared to lose your money, as the market can collapse at any time.

At the same time, the head of the Central Bank of Ireland admitted that interest in digital currencies has grown significantly in recent months. Even though no one controls this market, therefore, the state will not be able to protect traders who decide to buy such assets.
Note that the US authorities are also extremely negative about Bitcoin. Even the head of the Ministry of Finance in the Donald Trump administration, Stephen Mnuchin, said for a couple of years that Bitcoin is doomed, and very soon we will see how it will become a part of history.
