Bill Gates revealed his greatest mistake of all time made Microsoft miss its opportunity with Android, partly due to mismanagement and antitrust-related issues. However, Android co-founder Rich Miner says Bill Gates is more responsible than he's letting on.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has a net worth of $160 billion. He has used his fortune to buy properties, cars, and donate to philanthropic causes.

According to Rich Miner, co-founder of Android, Microsofts control over mobile has stifled innovation in the mobile space.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates recently discussed his "greatest mistake ever" while running the company when he sat down for an interview at Village Global with Eventbrite CEO Julia Hartz. In full, Gates said,

Rich Miner, a co-founder of Android, responded to Bill Gates' admission of Microsoft's $400 billion mobile market failure by blaming Gates' own choices for Android's defeat in the smartphone wars. "I literally helped create Android to prevent Microsoft from controlling the phone the way they did the PC - stifling innovation.

Bill Gates, considered a technological visionary, admits that his biggest mistake was neglecting the mobile operating systems market. This oversight allowed Google to create Android, which dominated the market and achieved the success that could have belonged to Microsoft.

Microsoft lost to Android in the race to dominate the mobile market, and the tech giant's co-founder Bill Gates, in a recent interview, admitted to the same. Now, Android co-founder Rich Miner has blamed Gates for this failure.
