Shark tank's Kevin O'Leary opinion on crypto crap

Kevin O'Leary is a Canadian businessman, best know from the reality tv show: "Shark tank". Where start-up entrepreneurs pitch their company to the "sharks" in the hope they get an investment. The sharks are institutional investors or venture capitalist (VC's) who invest their own money and time in the entrepreneur's ideas.

O'Leary, also known as Mr Wonderful, is well known for his money quotes on the show. He repeatedly says "I love money".

On a CNBC interview, Mr Wonderful admitted he bought into crypto on Coinbase, and calls it crypto crap. He bought $ 100 worth of different coins, which are now worth only $30. 

He previously stated that he tried to buy real estate with bitcoin, but the counterparty had issues liquidating the digital currency to cash.
