Rogan drew a comparison between the nascent days of the internet and how it came into power. He claimed that bitcoin is also facing a similar backlash, as a recent clip of Warren Buffett, Ceo of Berkshire Hathaway made rounds on the internet.

Rogan said,” I think of bitcoin the same way I think of the early internet, they didn’t see it coming, and now it’s a viable form of currency-you can actually buy things with it.”
