Gates, Buffett Prefer Farmland To Crypto As Blockchain Gains Steam Across Agriculture

While Warren Buffett, the esteemed CEO of Berkshire Hathaway
BRK.B
, and Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft
MSFT
, have both been vocal critics of cryptocurrency as an investment option, they have chosen to invest in farmland instead.

Both billionaires have shown an affinity for farmland investments, with Buffett purchasing his first farm in Nebraska for about $10,000 before high school and Gates owning over 269,000 tillable acres. Ironically, their investments coincide with the rapid adoption of blockchain technology in the agricultural industry, revolutionizing agricultural processes and potentially improving efficiency.
