It seems like Bitcoin like anything else in there or out there can get hacked.

Here's my concern, because everybody says there's a limited amount of bitcoin out there and only so much can be mined. It's been placed out there and it's not like it's an infinite amount. You know, when you compare it to fed policy and keep printing. Who's to say that some computer experts couldn't put more Bitcoin out there and hack all of that? Right and therefore depress the value as well.

Isn't bloomberg a serious news channel? Are they doing babytalk like this on purpose, or is she really that uninformed and shall I say 'stupid' ?

Seems like I could not include the image, so use the direct link:

Sorry about the low blow, I just couldn't help it today.

On a positive note, I think the pro-bitcoin guys were quite good.

I've got nothing against those that are negative to bitcoin, but for christ sake keep it intelligent.

Well News Anchors never seem to be that enlightened.

And Andreas never disappoints.

Too much stupid, I can understand it from somebody who has no idea but I think the best thing is the 'master lecturer' that appeared, yeah, he may be a master at lecturing people but he doesn't actually know anything about Bitcoin.
