In an Interview with CNBC's Squaak Box, Patrick McHenry, a Congressman from North Carolina's 10th District, told CNBC, "I think there's no capacity to kill Bitcoin," referencing Bitcoin as something that was "a joke 10 years ago that people were giving away for free," but is now trading around $10,000. Later in the interview, he reiterated: "My point is: you can't kill Bitcoin, but new iterations of this that are trying to mimic this...there are mechanisms to kill it."
