Bitcoin Forum

According to this fucking moron reporter over at gizmodo.  ::)

http://gizmodo.com/bitcoin-all-time-high-1792712406?utm_campaign=socialflow_gizmodo_twitter&utm_source=gizmodo_twitter&utm_medium=socialflow

I just wasted 3 minutes reading that crappy article.  ;D

Such an ugly title. Content is worthless. Nothing but a deliberate attempt by author to grab attention by intentionally using a sensational title.
It's all just, "according to blah blah blah", "blah blah reported", and then some unnamed "financial experts blah blah blah".

Just another trashy 'news site'.  :o

Why tell such thing? Do you have any idea how bitcoin helped other people?

LOL, "essentially worthless".  Er, no it's worth about $1100 per bitcoin, actually.  That reminds me of all the goldbugs who say fiat is worthless--and no doubt it's fiat they use to buy their groceries and pay their rent.  Fiat isn't worthless either.  Yeah, this is a pretty garbage article but some of the points are good, like exchanges going under.  That doesn't really mean anything for bitcoin itself, though.  There are dozens or hundreds of banks that failed in 2008-09 and it takes nothing away from fiat.

It sounds like a 19-year old wrote this article, doesn't it?

I have already read the OPs post about that article and it is really annoying like those people who keeps on posting the same stuff that bitcoin should die because of "this" and "that" reason, did bitcoin do harm you guys? or do you have any problems about bitcoin? if yes, then why not to stop going on this forum and stop posting nonsense stuff like that. We have already read the same articles like that for a million times, and we're done on it.

Instead of encouraging people that bitcoin should die, why not continue on supporting it, you will gain nothing on giving negative thought about bitcoin, because no one will believes you, bitcoin lovers will just get mad at you with this kind of opinion, so let's just stop this nonsense guys. If we have seen something like this again, let's just ignore it because whoever made that article is just a person which wants a lot of attention.

This article is such a waste of time .bitcoin has helped us to earn our hard earned money to such an extend.please dont believe in this article. Bitcoin price might go less but the price of bitcoin going dead is not acceptable at all.

Most journalists are corrupt and can be bought. That is why politicians love using them because all they care about is the love they have for money. Do all of you think there is still the responsible journalism that was practiced long ago? It is gone. It is all about who can pay for their services the highest.

you do realize that you are knowingly or unknowingly advertising this crappy article and are generating traffic for it?
and what are all these html tags that you have added after the link? is it your own site? and what is the point of sharing a useless unknown article here to mis-direct people's attention to?

I know right, this kind of people who are making such article about bitcoin doesn't make any sense at all. They are just keep on making people believe whatever they wrote on their articles, most of them are just making money out of it, they are doing anything to catch the attention of public so that their site would earn money by getting feedback to people, either negative or positive, they don't care as long as they are earning money out of their nonsense idea.

To be honest, such articles doesn't matter to me because my experience with bitcoin is far better and I would always go with my own experience rather than trusting some piece of article. Now coming back to the topic claimed in this article, I don't think anything like death of bitcoin is going to happen in at least next 5 years (yes we might see some fluctuations in the price) but I don't think it will diminish to 0.

gizmodo is a clickbait dump for illiterate idiots, why even bother posting articles from there? If you want a researched opinion aimed at people who can think, read this for example and stop promoting excrements )

https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2017-02-24/even-china-can-t-kill-bitcoin

Although the articles about that bitcoin will become death it has a possible to happen. They will put it in the social media when there is a chance to happen. But even that article sayings has a possibility to happen we should concentrate our time for now on bitcoin goods and continue using it like what we do.

I have such a huge amount of hate towards these idiotic news websites. They just continuously spew out garbage and the worst part is that a lot of people actually believe the bullshit they write. Like why the hell should Bitcoin already be dead? The writer of the article clearly has a minuscule brain for him to write such a stupid article. But this article, along with others stating how Bitcoin has already died, aren't a surprise to anyone who has used Bitcoin for a decently long time. With time comes the realisation that there will always be haters, but with Bitcoin, you just have idiots who don't know a thing about Bitcoin and just spread the word about how bad it is.

Probably the writer of the article is a supporter of an altcoin and wanted to promote it by starting on spreading FUD to Bitcoin.  But somehow at the current state of Bitcoin, writer have point though it is a biased comparison when a robust transaction is compared to a minimal one.  As long as developer is working and keep on thinking for the possible upgrades that fit in a present and future scenario, Bitcoin will never die, let alone the miner that is supporting the network.

Crap article! I wasted few minutes of my life reading this!! But this kind of negative marketing is very useful for news sites as it grabs a lot of attention just as this article does. People are getting in to the website to read this article and they are enjoying the free publicity from Bitcointalk forum.

Nice marketing strategy!

;D Interesting.
After reading your post, I tried reaching the site/article via this link http://gizmodo.com/bitcoin-all-time-high-1792712406?
(removing all the tags you've mentioned), and it does link me to the very same article.
Wonder what all those tags were for ???

I better read up on links and such. Just in case.
Anyway, whatever tricks they play, it's still a trash article.  ::) Doing anything and everything for traffic.  :-[

---

Yeah well, it isn't so bad for us since we already know enough to ignore garbage such as these. Just a shame, same could not be said for those curious would-be users/those reading up trying to learn about bitcoin.


 

That article took away 2 minutes of my precious time, which can never be brought back. Michael Nunez should be sued for writing such utter crap. never expected such an article to appear in a reliable tech news site such as Gizmodo. Although I am not one of their regular readers, I visit that site sometimes to get up to date information about electronics and mobile apps. This is the first time I am seeing such a distasteful article there.

Well that article is still analysis and speculation about bitcoin and if bitcoin will be dead,
it will happen but doesn't because of the article  ;D
personality bitcoin will not be dead because many people who made investments into it
with large of capital, they will not burn their money in bitcoin.

bitcoin is not that easy to die and now the user already scattered around the world, bitcoin IS the best used of money, the one that said bitcoin is not a great money is the one that never tried bitcoin, and yes some people scam using bitcoin but there more people scammed using fiat, this article is written from person with that never known bitcoin for a long time

Everyone has a right to opinion but this is a classic example of how ignorant and illogical some people opinions are.
Bitcoin outlive each one of us and it is going to be the money of future.

bitcoin is not death and will never be death because we are here to support bitcoin as long as we are inhabiting the earth because its not just a money its a revolution for our future generation.

Bitcoin will not die because it has a great supportive community and also it has a lot of investors that are sustaining the bitcoin price and also a lot of miners who sustains the bitcoin network. I think bitcoin will die after 10 to 20 years because of some issues but now? Nope, bitcoin will not and bitcoin will stay for more years.

This is pure ignorance and lack of understanding of the times. Bitcoin has proven time and time again to be the most formidable cryptocurrency out there but the doomsayers are just not going to research before putting out blatant lies and speculation out there.

I could say that everyone is free to express his opinion but clearly this is a classic example of 'click-bait' article. It is not accidental that this kind of articles are a great 'scourge' of the internet. I found very informative to find the roots of this term where searching the net I found an article about Taboola  (http://www.bbc.com/news/business-29322578) a hitech digital advertising company which founded in Israel by Adam Singolda, who served for 7 years, as an officer of the elite cryptography unit of the Israeli army. The Gizmodo's reporter like many others found a very catchy title and the rest of the article is a conglomeration of crap words because is well known that there is not good or bad publicity.

a few years ago there were threads telling that bitcoin is dying, but it survives until now. and there is such thread, but in article form, telling us the same thing. I think it would be the same as few years ago. bitcoin doesn't die yet, it just faces hard time.

In future I would only share links from more legitimate news networks - this is just clickbait, and we're making them money.  But you're right, this is pretty stupid.  Particularly the assertion that financial experts have abandoned Bitcoin - they cite no sources for the claim so the only evidence in the article that could be related to that is the fact that Bitcoin has reached an ATH.

To be fair though, this thread just generates loads of responses talking about how stupid the article is which makes some people think everyone who says Bitcoin should die are just stupid, whereas there are some reasonable arguments for this e.g. the inability of developers to update the block size / expensive transactions etc.

yeah right... and his ass as well. What shitty article... god damned reporters, they only talk shit, and this one clearly doesn´t know what he is talking about...

Gizmodo is no longer reliable source of information. They had episodes when they published utter crap before.
This so called 'tech magazine' is nothing more but propaganda channel for corporations and tech-related establishment.
They often use their articles as form of advertisement rather than presenting the truth.

The way I read the articles was a waste of time honestly speaking, bitcoin was very meant to many of the bitcoin community in this field of industry. Besides not all report in the social media, websites, television, and radio are accurate or precise sometimes they twist their report for the sake of money, that's the reality happen.

Bitcoin is bothering many people, that is good... Things are going very well for Bitcoin enthusiasts, so be prepared, fake news will launch a new attack wave against the virtual currency, that is what their sponsors want, so that is what they do.

the only thing interesting for me here is to find out what OP were thinking to himself when he shared this article! or better yet how in the world he found the most random and the most useless article on the internet about bitcoin. because that needs a talent to find something that is nowhere to be found like search engines!

As one of the user quoted Op's reference link is just an ugly statement. People here have known much about bitcoin as well it's long time struggle to overcome several outrageous statements which made bitcoin fall worse in a short time period. So bitcoin death is not at all gonna happen even if digital network gets destroyed, because someone surely holds bitcoin stored in hardware wallets but won't be used.

Why?..... Well there is several reasons for this :

1. Clickbait articles draw attention and they want to attract viewers to their site - more views, more Ad income
2. Some sites are a front for fake news to shill for their masters
3. If you cannot get something bad to write, make it up as you go.
4. Some people get paid to write articles, so they will post any shit to get paid.

Those will get you started.  >:(

I keep feeling like a majority of the people that write articles like this are entirely asspained and cannot believe that they're repeatedly being BTFO by being a nocoiner.

Kind of a shame, but these people are willfully retarded and if their only means of coping is through shitty articles they write for whatever news website they write for now.

Glorious.

Many people are earning they living through bitcoin, millions all over the world are investing in bitcoin. So don't think  bitcoin can be killed for now. I read the article, the writer only succeed in making one point and that is bitcoin is highly volatile and that is why it should be killed. What many bitcoin haters fail to understand is that: Bitcoin can not be killed by a country, group of companies or individual because it is decentralized.

In a strange sort of way i actually think that these articles end up promoting bitcoin in a way.  Like what serious person would read the article and then see the price and think that it is worthless, especially considering it has already crashed to $200.  I am sure there are lots of people how have actually got in to bitcoin through a negative article like this.

The article takes a very immature approach, it basically states bitcoin should be dead because I say so, and things don’t work like that, bitcoin will keep on existing as long as a segment of the population finds it useful, it does not matter if at some point bitcoin is worth a dollar, people will keep using it.

Guess he's a fucking moron like you're saying to have conceived this idea. Bitcoin is doing so well that even a first year economics student will attest to this fact.. Go ahead and look at the trends and you come and tell me if something dead could be commanding such value on the market.

Yes bitcoin is not dead and I don't think bitcoin will be died or should be,
bitcoin will not be dead as long as still there are comunity, investors
developers of bitcoin and today many people who made investments on it,
will be hard to bitcoin for dead.

i think there is no dbout about this. and i do not think that there is any need to discuss that, because the use of bitcoin is continuously increasing and people are entering in the world of bitcoin and will stay here for a long time.

Lol that guy that wrote thst article is a clown and obviously just got out of clown collage. He is actually saying nothing. Nothing. He is just talking and saying stuff and that is exactly what it is just stuff. He may as well be telling us that clouds are red and he lives on the moon and eats chicken. Opens his mouth and crap spews out. Just random garbage with no sense. You may as well listen to a 3 year old. He lacks maturity he writes terribly. He brings nothing to the table everyone knows everything he said . He is a bafoon.

I don't agree with the article, but let's explore the critiques:

Is illegitimate: no more so than a recently ipo'd stock in a traditional market. Don't even get me started on penny/small cap stocks.

Volatile: see above

Subject to manipulation: virtually any stock on any traditional market.

So, are traditional stocks "worthless"?

Also, feels like the author might have missed the train, and wouldn't mind bringing it back to them station with a little FUD.

I am not sure it will happen, and I do not expect that it will happen. Well, a lot of people who have invested with bitcoin, even many people from the government who invest their money. I believe, as long as they continue to use bitcoin, bitcoin will not die.

Big thanks for saving my time :-D

It will be. But not now. People still think bitcoin have value. Crazy.

there are kinds of these people that try to kill something especially when people love it. They are just trying to caught or attention in their articles so everyone could read it. Anyway, bitcoin will not die with its current user now, that article also said that bitcoin is just an entertainment which is really pissing me off. Many users are taking these as a job and I dont think that is an entertainment.

Probably but the mention of altcoin having more advance than bitcoin simply means he is downgrading bitcoin and people should move to altcoin.  I do not know if this is FUD to get Bitcoin cheap or a discouragement so that people will hop in on the altcoin he will suggest on his next article if ever he will create another one.

If you think Bitcoin will be dead at some point then let me ask you a legitimate question , what are you doing in this forum then ? We are all here to support Bitcoin and it will not die now, tomorrow , in the near future or in the distant future. The reason for that is simple, Bitcoin can be used in a lot of ways for any person in all the world. And yes Bitcoin has value, actually at 1155 USD almost same price as gold.

No news. They've been saying this for years, there are people who really put some effort into it. Maybe they do not accept the fact that they did not invest when Bitcoin was much cheaper, or are paid by people who want to see the currency fall in price. But it does not matter, as long as Bitcoin remains functional and useful.

Indeed, another claim regard bitcoin in the future without any legit evidence. Well, no one could provide the 'evidence' of course.
As the article stated, "And, of course, it’s already been declared dead dozens of times." Don't they learn the basics fact? Bitcoin can't just vanish or die as long as the community stand still, all of the users support bitcoin which we know that bitcoin is a better alternative currency with many advantages.

Well for now we can not see any problem about bitcoin and even the price is going to down after hacked from exchange site they are still rankings or increase the value fast after the hack issue of some exchange site..
Many people like other said many supporters of bitcoin are pumping them up and more company are accepting bitcoin as payment.. so bitcoin has a great future and never die..

Something is worth what someone else will pay for it. I will pay $1,100 for 1 btc at the moment, so bitcoin isn't worthless. If you have a pile of your dog's poo you may think it is worthless, but if someone will pay 5 bucks for it, then it is worth $5!

Doesn't matter, still good marketing strat

Agree with you dude, as of now bitcoin will not die and I'm here to support bitcoin and for sure all supportive community will support also. Many Investors invest their money to the bitcoin and take note some of them are big investor and rich people in the world. Look the price of bitcoin its really great. Bitcoin will stay I think in 10 years more because everysingle day many people know what is the opportunity that give of bitcoin so those people invest and bitcoin will stay stronger and  bitcoin will list to the history of online . don't say bitcoin is dead those people said bitcoin is dead because he is envy because he don't have bitcoin.

Well, this kind of sensationalist webs abound around the internet, but I don't know why OP and other forum members are permanently trying to discourage people from believing in the great future of bitcoin. Fortunately most of us prefer to keep our support to this ecosystem and we have deserved this amazing and consistent price increase.

wow. that's a very retro article. i kinda feel like i'm back in 2011/12 reading that. i think things have moved on a little from that viewpoint. and who cares what the comments section says? they'll be the very last on board.

Only speculation from them to trigger newbie users panic sell I guess, as people want to buy bitcoin at cheaper price before ETF approval on March 11th, highest price maybe reach a day before the decision from U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
However, the chance of ETF will get approval less than <40% so we can't expect so much.

Lol that's the shittiest article I've ever read in my life. This guy is obviously an idiot and doesn't know the first thing about bitcoins. Omfg so stupid.

Actually a nice article for those people who wants to have a good laugh. Bitcoin does not refuse to die--its users are those who refuse to and actually keep it alive. Also, who would put such a term for bitcoin? If we are talking about the pricing in here again for the nth time, well the writer of the article is, somehow basing everything on face value, lol.

it's a waste of time for this article, I feel remorse when made time for it. anyone who loves Bitcoin are feeling the worst of it. I think it should not be here, I do not know who that reporter guy, but I hate him. this is a worthless document, I think anyone saw that. instead encourage Bitcoin to die, you should encourage the development of it just like everyone.

Just like other members said here that i just waste my minutes/time on reading that article which i considered as trash since those words arent fit for bitcoin development that we are witnessing now and instead of bringing it down we should love to spread the words related to it.

what a stupid article. Bitcoin can not death in this century. It is new and innovative. The number of Bitcoin users keep increasing day by day and you have to admit that there is no way for BItcoin to be dead. Therefore, instead of sharing this article, you should do something more effective and useful in order to support Bitcoin. Bitcoin needs your help, we need your help, this community needs your help. Together, we will make bitcoin great again

Bitcoin cannot death.It is going to replace all other currencies. It has a long life and also it is going to give life to many people in this world. So it is funny to say bitcoin is going to die.     

Personally I don’t think this is ignorance, that article was created in bad faith, they want to discourage the use of bitcoin and are spreading lies like the ones we see in the article, anyones that uses bitcoin knows bitcoin is not dying, it may have some problems because it is not perfect but it is not dying.

i won't say that will replace all other currency, that is unlikely, but is as strong as it get and it will not be killed by anyone anymore, the poster of that article is a guy that had problem with transaction fee and he is hungry at bitcoin like many other

To me, bitcoin will sure die one day but not in the foreseeable future. Technology gets better and better, and "something" else will eventually replace bitcoin.

Saying bitcoin cannot die is just like a thousand years ago people using seashell is the best form of money- most likely they were thinking that seashell as a currency will not die...

If they can't resolve high fee and delay problem, will dead soon.

bitcoin can actually die because of a wide variety of reasons, first of all people can start selling it really fast and then the bitcoin price would go down rapidly thus bitcoin might even die if people decide to never invest in it again, besides that governments might start banning it thus people would be afraid of using it, even though it is possible i doubt that bitcoin will ever die because people want it to be successful

the writer of that article is just stating some flaws and worst events from the past I don't know he seemed to be having a hate with bitcoin so he wrote the article . I don't see any point that bitcoin is just like what he is describing in his article and I wonder why there are still thread and article like this where we can see the word "dead" which addressed to bitcoin . many people have witnessed how bitcoin became successful and up to now it is still popular so how come that bitcoin is going to die .

Yes, but the developers of bitcoin and the people who care about bitcoin future
will make solution for this problem, the developers had made segwit for the solution
although it still not be activated because there are some comunity disagree with segwit,
but at least they try to fixing this problem for bitcoin be better.

Yeah we should be happy because bitcoin is not dead yet, just don't mind those people speculating about the bitcoin misconceptions. As we all knew btc price will be striking more profit.from time to time and nowadays lately, price will be able to reach that new record of $2k; well if this lucky price will strongly grow of its demand always that's not impossible to reach.

Well, today, I think bitcoin users will not dwell on it. but, I think, if bitcoin is still being used, I think it will not happen. bitcoin has a price so high. so I feel that bitcoin will always be used as long as it still has a price, and so far, I feel that bitcoin will always have a price, and still used.

Yes this is very annoying especially when price start rising and your incoming transactions are not confirmed almost two days. They will resolve this with segwit don't worry. But this can happen to any coin right, with popularity and mass usage?

Another sh*tty article to gain blog popularity. I have seen many new blogs writing anything out of box say-
"Bitcoin will be $10,000 this year!! Read how..." etc etc
Else, there is nothing special these days creating devastating swings in Bitcoin price or demand

I came across Taboola/Adam Singolda via waiting for a non-related Google search, but first the page had to load perfectmarket.com which redirects to taboola.com. Odd!

yeah, the most simple clickbait and titles like this pop-out all the time all over the internet, well they're here for every thing that gains popularity. Absolutely nothing to pay attention to. :|

Bitcoin will not die for a very long time. The popularity of this currency is growing every year. What is the price of bitcoin is constantly fluctuating does not speak about his death. If you look at the dynamics of growth, every year income.

YEah another fake news i guess nothing could predict the cryptocurrency in the market with consistency because its lie a random thing for every body so no doubt abouot that just invest in bitcoin but maybe today its havong a hard time to increasing its price in the market.

It will never die as you assumed or wished. Don't mix bitcoin with other imitation ones. It has a glorious history and will maintain as the favourite of the [Suspicious link removed]munity.

Yeah. He is very idiot reporter. I don't know why he became reporter at all. He is like a parasites that is implementing bad information about the bitcoin. Taht reporter should not be a model to the other reporter.

Make sure not to give him views and to link it thru the archive site next time mate

I would state that the guy is just upset that he didn't purchase Bitcoin during the single/double digit range though it seems that he's getting pretty popular from that article..

One of the problems with the internet is that anyone can create a website and say they are an expert on something when they are not, in fact there is a book about this if anyone is interested in reading it, it is called the death of expertise by Tom Nichols, and it is precisely about how having so much knowledge at our fingertips is slowly eroding the authority of experts

Yes correct, this would make us to carefully, there is no guarantee bitcoin always used so it is better we sell when the benefit. I sure the price is hard to rise more than $5000 maybe this year will stable $2500.

I simply wasted some of my time by reading some craps its really not worth . How these kind of people able to write article without any knowledge . He is stating " trading above $1,200 according to several exchanges." Now the value is more than double find this guy and show the current price .

Don't believe the statements like bitcoin should be die and investing bitcoin is waste. Why people thinking like that. Day by day, the demand for the bitcoin is rising in the biggest stock exchange markets.

hahahaha that is savage mate. and yeah the article have no facts and any basis it is more like a opinion only and contextualize in a article. The writer of that article have a small knowledge only in bitcoin moreover, the pirce of the bitcoin exceeds the price stated in the article so no need to worry about that fake news.

This are people who have missed the opportunity of buying at lowe price and since price has gone high they fell it that way. Its fine every one has a opinion so does not not worry . They instead of purchasing at regular intervals keep writing this stuff and in the mean time prices zoom and they miss the opportunity again.

And this is how idiots get attention.
Why do you even start a thread about some random guy writing an article which such a stupid title I REFUSE to open.

Read a few comments and it seems I managed to save myself 2 or 3 minutes of my life.
Wow, such a long read was that? Probably a well documented 4 liner, isn't it?

And in the end you gave that moron what it wanted page views and back links.

Lol man! What you were doing when you were reading that post. Bitcoin is just out of box thinking and it can’t be dead very soon (or may be never). Bitcoin is made very smoothly and with a great thought process. The blockchain hold the key for the story behind bitcoins success. Bitcoin is going to live forever and it will also improve itself with the time.

Akin to the dude who secretly wants to be pedophile but all the good boys are taken so he pens negative articles about pedophiles outta sheer jealousy, all the while handsome boys were in his neck of the woods during the penning, thus missing out again, then further frustrated so he pens yet another article dissing pedophiles. I'm a bright guy, hence seeing the logic in your post.

Wow nonsense is the word for that piece of work.  Yet still here we are all talking about it.  Amazing how smut and garbage still gathers the most intellectually sound people.  Bitcoin shall not perish, friends!

🦋🦋❤️🦋

We can  say BTC is alive and not dead, because it usable now a days.

Next time don't link directly to clickbait, that's what they want yo to do


Use the archives website and look at the time & date of when the article was posted

Very general news websites, just for a stunt propaganda :( ;D

Some were still not open for the idea of change , we all have different understanding on it and on how it will affect our life ot will definitely depend on us and I like that I knew bitcoin and it does change my life in better way especially financially.

I am so sure that if bitcoin will never die. Well, bitcoin will continue to be developed even more when this blockchine size will be increased. Of course it will make bitcoin transactions faster, and will probably make bitcoin more popular.

We have already seen obituary notice of bitcoin many times before also through out the net.Its all FUD just trying to pump some alts by showing bitcoin as worthless.Instead of believing such articles,i would like to decide based on my personal experiences in journey with bitcoin.I have come to the bitcoin network two years before and i know its potential very well.Bitcoin deserves more price than what it is today.

This we thought when the bigger bumps on the bitcoin chart and many adoption happen but it says non blockchain based smart contracts. Even BIP148 increasing of blocks size only but not anywhere states that blockchain based block segregation.
Please understand that and save bitcoin in your desktop wallet itself as much you can.

Yes.... we have seen obituary notices previously also, but this is the worst crisis ever happened with Bitcoins in its short history. Even the Mt Gox scandal of 2014, and the recent Bithumb hack pales in comparison.

What crisis? Little panic before segwit made people to sell, or that is even high level manipulation. What ever it is, crisis is to strong word for it. How can you compare this drop with hacking MtGox?
Bitcoin is far from dead, and this articles, topics are just lousy try to create panic and make people sell their stash of bitcoin. Well that is not going to happen, bitcoin is stronger then ever before, and this 1,000$ in just one day is proof that bitcoin can go to 4,000$ before the end of the year, that is not dead, that is alive and growing, like on steroids.

Unlike what happened in the past, bitcoin is undergoing a transformation, this is not a crisis, but this transformation can impact the future of bitcoin.

Many people expect bitcoin to die but currently bitcoin again on top so very difficult.

It is not that bitcoin is this or that. OP misses the point completly. The issue of bitcoin success is the crappyness of the current financial model, that even the slightest honesty in finance is making a huge success.

So everything the enemies of bitcoin says about the bitcoin, it applies to them with ever greater force. They are like clowns that are punching a dummy, and that dummy is hitting them so hard they fall to the ground.

If that does not defines a hypocrisy, I do not know what is.

Bitcoin is faaaaaaar from being perfect, but its a diamonds compared to crap market of derivatives.

Crisis averted. What's next? It's really funny seeing a lot of thread about the demise of bitcoin but little did we know that they have a hidden agenda behind it, like they want to buy at low price that's why they are creating panic amongst members. But bitcoin again proved that it will not die but going strong as the price move closer to $2800. So I seriously doubt that it will died like that. And after Aug 1 bitcoin with renewed strength will go for another ATH.

Indeed bitcoin will not die because bitcoin can be used by people of lower calcium who will give them money that changed his life. Do not believe with words that have not been proven, bitcoin price right now how ??

Generally speaking it is necessary to say everything openly!
What is the meaning of self-deception?
In reality, August 1 will occur the following!

Step into the arena and someone will tell you.


Bitcoin didn't want to die, but we killed him!!!!

Bitcoin is dead!!!


Then step into the arena and the other clown will say!!!


Long live Bitcoin!!!


But that's how many that don't scream. But Prince Charles will never be King Arthur!!!!

There will be a lot of FUD during the next 6-7 days, i.e until August 1. There are two types of people who spread this FUD. The first one consists of bears who want the prices to go down, so that they can short cover their positions. The second type consist of the users of various altcoins such as Ethereum and Litecoin, who want these alts to replace Bitcoin.

There's always at least one article a week making crazy claims about bitcoin dying, just have to ignore them is all!

Well obviously this article was in February where we saw Bitcoin recovered tremendously from 500$ we saw it come above 1000$ level in which we see it 1200$ now saying it in the present time Bitcoin proves the haters wrong as Bitcoin's price is now above 2800$ level. This sites like gizmodo and other tech sites or even blog sites only wants to enjoy the opportunity to increase their traffic as topics like this increases their critics who in return will share this article as well. It is an obvious move made by majority of the sites.

Welp... He'll be kicking himself on this in the future.

Dude he is there is no point of consider his article why you simple promoting his article which is baseless after his article bitcoin raised more than 100% so simply dont post this kind of article its like promoting is baseless article.

This is totally a crap , bitcoin helps people , and in fact this isnt illegal why it should be dead? It help us to get extra income.

Thats true, bitcoin will not die nowadays it continues growing and attracts more users. Its helps more people to earn income and gives benefits to all users. As ive read the article theres no point of saying bitcoin is dead. As still grows and price is still active in the market.

It is right that it help people to earn money a lot as well as through easiest way. It is not true that bitcoin is going to die. This propaganda policy of bitcoin’s enemies is not going towards succession, because in future it will only bitcoin who will help the people and will be the most prosperous currency across the world. I think we should have to avoid all these speculation and focus on our work to earn with bitcoin.

I love how reporters these days are basically nothing more than idiots with a Youtube channel or something. They spew pure nonsense all the time and spread FUD.

This guy probably wouldn't even make it on YT either, probably get no views and no ad rev lol. BTC is dead for the millionth time!!! help!!! lol

The fact is that Bitcoin starts to walk everyone. That's why it's profitable for somebody. It seems to me that all this nonsense starts to speak because we then use the panic and buy cheaper Bitcoin. This is all specifically done.

The reported apparently haven't watched a video with Bill Gates NObody can stop bitcoin! https://youtu.be/k0HmrSfJwhU -,- If he had, he would't have said that crap as he did. God forgive him! ;D

And of course is not just about the price rising, it's also about the tech itself evolving. Almost everyday we read news about a new business accepting bitcoin as payment. There are ATMs. Cards. Online payments. Bitcoin's death also means the death of an entire enviroment.

You know what guys? Bitcoin has been dead for hundred years and people are just keep on saying that bitcoin should be dead and every user should quit and migrate to another alt coin. Don't listen to these people as they didn't have bitcoin holdings or they sold their coins cheaper and now regretting.

I agree. How can an article like that predict the future of bitcoin and have already claimed that bitcoin will die soon. No one can clearly state or prove a fact that bitcoin will die sooner or later. The recent dumps are just a normal phenomenon on market industry that really happens when pump is not visible. Also, it is that impossible because there are massive number of users that have been using bitcoin since then that can be affected. Bitcoin will not die because all of the happenings are just a normal phenomenon and there are a lot of users all over the world so it is impossible to happen. Let us just think of the positive side of it instead of stating speculations about it.

So this is a demonstration from people who has been sold their bitcoin earlier, and been missing the train. :D
How bitcoins will going to dead, when everyday many people interesting to learn and ready to investing.

"Bitcoins helps people". Yes. If you get stuck on the Peruvian embassy they might come in handy.

I believe that the future of crypto will go without mining. It's a stupid way to build value. Unless you use your minerhardware for heating the house.

Put that electricity into a light bulb and you got light.

This guy clearly doesn't know what he is writing about. He is probably just mad at himself that the price jumped before he invested and that he might not have made any money in the price-rise. I just can't see why anyone would label Bitcoin not as a currency and even going to the lengths to call it a scam.

Sure, there are some downsides, but Bitcoin as a whole is a far superior platform than normal fiat. As far as I can see, this article is aimed and written by those who sold too early and are missing out on the profits now. Sad....

The thread OP got a catchy title that i find it interesting. That reporter must be boycott and be slap in the face with bitcoin paper transactions. Why not support something that is benefits others, than making judgemental and bias reporting or judgement/conclusions.

Yeah those people that rode the train earlier and was able to get out of it early are the ones who keep on saying these things about bitcoin. Guilty facts that they don't want to see others who chose to stay in bitcoin and earned a big amount from the price pump. It will never die the market cap is too big even it cost $500/BTC it will pump fast.

We cannot avoid it as we are human beings that have different views on the same subject matter. Plus this one is a author of a website obviously he is just creating noise in order to get traffic. We as a Bitcoin user will automatically hate all the negative comments/articles/post as we are not sharing the same opinion with Bitcoin it is not related if this guy sold too early or did not buy any, as far as we know he don't even have any Bitcoins until now. We don't need to hate we just need to accept the fact that negative things will come for Bitcoin and it is up to us if we believe them or not.

What will I think so about bitcoin, my bitcoin will never die from the world

A hard fork issue that makes all the bitcoin goals go awry, when it was originally made, bitcoin was designed to be the solution and the money of the future.

i don't think bitcoin will dead because is the future, and i think the fiat money will die soon and the killer is bitcoin  ;D

What? Why do you want to end a good thing that makes the country better? Bitcoin really is a good thing that exists in this world! It makes payment SO MUCH EASIER for everyone. So don't listen to that reporter. He is ending something that has a great value and a great possession of humanity.

Our dependence on the income from bitcoin will be helpful to the bitcoin to keep it alive.
I might argue that bitcoin will continue to prevail for the future.
And the popularity of bitcoin will continue to rise and never die

I don't think that at all like that. Bitcoin will never die i guess, bitcoin is an amazing future and has many advantages of it. Maybe even bitcoin will be more using by many peoples and some people even make it as a source of income. Bitcoin will stay alive and accompany many peoples.

Yes, it's true bitcoin really helps others in improving the economy, but why there's a question "Bitcoin is not dead but it should be so"

No, It won't happen. Imagine the status of bitcoin nowadays, It is more popular and at the same time, there are many people who have interested in it. It's  impossible that bitcoin is going to die. I think it maybe fails but it still it would also increase in the long run. I have read about the news in this forum that
(there's probably only slightly increased the risk of confirmations disappearing. You should still prepare for Aug 1.) I won't believe that news instead, I'm just praying that the news will become false. God knows what is better for the better person.

Some people helped by the existence of Bitcoin. I've heard happy news from them after getting to know Bitcoin. The economic conditions of them have improved, and now I have seen the happiness of them.

why man...?
I don't think so, at present it is facing a crisis due to a rumor but this situation will not last long, it is a currency, so every currency has to face his type of ups and downs of its life cycle. it's a natural process, so don't be confused and afraid of this situation. Bitcoin will not die anymore...

So I want to say thanks and I will not proceed in reading that. Here's my view regarding the lifeline of Bitcoin which in fact is based on how it fight itself and the trust of the users. These tqo things shaped Bitcoin and will make Bitcoin live because if not then it will be the end.

You're going to have a bizarre idea on Bitcoin. I do not agree with you. Bitcoin can never die. And do not die. Those who believe Bitcoin do not say such things. I think you too are Many people say such things to attract people.

"gizmodo" I am just hear the site name.reporter like a crab he don't have idea where is bitcoin now and where will be next few years.title does not match with his description.he just quote some old bullshit news.OP please dont post like that title some people confused they don't even read the news.just comment in here.

If we think that bitcoin will die is a big mistake we should see its progress has proved very good, so no longer need to fear.

Yes, we should see a progress specially after the Aug 1 date. No need to fear as we can see that the price is very strong at $2700. No one could think that bitcoin will reach this far then just suddenly die. This is just pure FUD and lies. It bitcoin could have die, it should be long before. But it has remained standing for more than 8 years now and will go and continue until the last bitcoin has been mined. And that time I think bitcoin could have made a lot of people rich.

yes you are right and I am agree that bitcoin is helping everyone and today bitcoin users will not dwell on it as the bitcoin is being use on a very huge level so it will never happen the price of the bitcoin is getting high day by day so we are hoping for it to become more high instead of decreasing I can see that bitcoin has a bright future.

People still dont understand the basic fundamentals of bitcoin and will continue to write hit piece after hit piece and we will keep chugging along.

I agree with you, All this talk is just FUD and lies, about bitcoin destiny. I don't believe that bitcoin will die now or soon. before the fork, I mean now, bitcoin have a high potential, with an extraordinary price, so there is no risk to die. In 1 august maybe there is some impacts in bitcoin price without any other problems. So my prediction about bitcoin after the 01/07, that, will be more powerfull than ever and cross the 3000$ very soon after the fork.

Bitcoin is too popular to die. I don't believe the rumors. After the fork we will see very rapid growth in prices. Whales have put a lot of efforts to spread panic and they want to harvest their purchased bitcoins. I am sure that this will be a lesson for those who sold their bitcoins during the panic.

I never thought that bitcoin would die, it was just changing the platform, a change needed for the future of bitcoin. However, this change is not really perfect, many holes can be exploited.

Nooo
it's not good idea. it's the best way to invest money and succeed. There are some much different advices and opinions. I just found Omega One and Confideal. Last should be interesting due to usual people orientation

unless bitcoin keep rising, there is no way bitcoin will die, people still need bitcoin because of its value.
