Have you also the feeling that in the mainstream press you see only negative news about cryptocurrency ?

Each pups is reported. Like the facebook advertisements. Who cares about this.

Yes, it is. Every single time when I see some mass media news I have just the same feeling. Even when the BTC price was growing up tv channels said only about local corrections. I try to avoid this kind of silly news at all.

Facebook advertisement ban is a positive thing.

Usually the negative stuff comes from already established economists and op-ed's, news are generally positive.

We should care about it because this might drive off the popularity of the bitcoin or other crypto currencies form the current uses and the new users of the crypto currency. The net effect could be negative on the bitcoin economy and thus might not be helpful to grow beyond what is speculated really.

Press, yes the media is always lie for their own popularity because they get the attention and people are always happy to see the negative side of the things rather than whats the positive about it, that is in human nature and press/media knows that very well.

The Facebook thing is too much and that might be just related to the internal aspects of the Facebook, they might have changed their policy and who cares about that. Its not gonna affect the crypto world at all as it is huge and beyond the Facebook pages.

The news is very profitable "whales". Ordinary people and newbies are scared and immediately begin to sell their assets at low prices. Someone was in big profits from the fact that today there was news from Bloomberg. Although this news is almost 2 months.

Not only do I get that feeling but I now read from a much more skeptic view and quite often times the narrative that the media tries to push fails because it isn't even sound logic but they can scare away the noobs and the idiots who can't sift through the crap.
