Title: Boycott CCN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: jvdp on April 11, 2019, 04:02:08 AM I just went through the news article by CCN but such worst thought and article by them. They started the article stating we (crypto community) continuously begging big investors to on board over bitcoin. Must need to avoid news site and paper CCN.
https://www.ccn.com/beware-bitcoin-might-blindly-chase-the-dow-into-the-next-financial-crisis Let's hope we will find more bull run coming to trash this s***y centralized site's fake news. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: dothebeats on April 11, 2019, 05:00:58 AM Skimmed through the article and I didn't seem to find anything regarding 'begging' but rather continuously relating bitcoin and conventional asset classes. I'm not defending anything regarding CCN but you may have overly analyzed the said article. Also, ultimately it's the choice of institutional investors and those meddling with the Dow to place their money on cryptoassets, and not because the community is 'begging' them but they simply want to take advantage of the opportunity for profits.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Herbert2020 on April 11, 2019, 05:13:43 AM CCN (not CNN by the way as your topic title says) is a known shitsite that has been publishing clickbait articles for a very long time. they basically publish things based on the mood of the market. nowadays a lot of people are actually begging for imaginary "big players" to come in and buy the coins they are bag holding so that they can make profit. i didn't get that from this particular article but that is a reality which you can see if you read some of the posts around bitcointalk too. they sometimes even go as far as begging the government to intervene and "pump" the price by "regulating" cryptos thinking if that happens they can become rich!!!
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Kakmakr on April 11, 2019, 05:17:36 AM The small number of Crypto currency supporters that reads CNN or some of these media shills, will not influence their total viewership world wide. ::) They will just laugh at our attempts to boycott their news platform and this will strengthen their negativity towards Crypto currencies.
We just need to discuss these articles on public forums and sites like Reddit, where you can actually counter the FUD that are spread in these articles and we should create our own Crypto currency websites to get a positive message out there. ;) Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Kemarit on April 11, 2019, 05:25:11 AM CCN (not CNN by the way as your topic title says) is a known shitsite that has been publishing clickbait articles for a very long time. they basically publish things based on the mood of the market. nowadays a lot of people are actually begging for imaginary "big players" to come in and buy the coins they are bag holding so that they can make profit. i didn't get that from this particular article but that is a reality which you can see if you read some of the posts around bitcointalk too. they sometimes even go as far as begging the government to intervene and "pump" the price by "regulating" cryptos thinking if that happens they can become rich!!! Exactly, if you go around the Press (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=77.0) board, the OP can find lots of shitty articles being posted and once your read it, they are all garbage and everything was put up because they want revenues for it. I did go around the around, not much to say, the same gibberish and rehearse article. Begging? we don't need to ,if money will flow again into the ecosystem, then it will. And this is just another FUD and non-sense article. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Deylandra on April 11, 2019, 05:34:59 AM boycotting news you disagree with is not a good thing.
then all news would be boycotted. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: niisarearning on April 11, 2019, 06:06:39 AM Crypto community never begged whales to enter market and invest . Any investor find the opportunity in new technology its been more than 10 years for mobile application market still its able to adopt 50 billion market . Crypto currency 2 times ahead of that in this bearish market. So CNN can reconsider this fact why investors are investing their hard earned money . Its simple they found potentiality in blockchain and new mode of currency.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Ayiranorea on April 11, 2019, 06:06:54 AM Every new site comes with some form of correlation, and for the same if we begin to boycott there won't be any new source provider for Cryptocurrency. CCN from view is one amongst the most preferred cryptocurrency news provider available for the users. Every news website reveals some negative news at times, for which we can't say every news from the particular website is wrong and against cryptocurrencies.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: yazher on April 11, 2019, 06:15:08 AM We know the media should not be trusted whether it is CCN or CNN whatsoever, Because they only show us what they want us to believe to they don't care If it is right or Wrong, True or False it doesn't really matter to them as long as they get a profit out of it. The News that really need to publish are ignored by them. they're just good to pass wrong idea to the people.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Yaunfitda on April 11, 2019, 06:18:32 AM No need to boycott them, if you have been in crypto for a long time, you will understand that crypto journalism is one of the worst, in the industry. Everyone website is just copying each other and just putting some spin around.
Or most of the time, they will just quote someone and taking everything out of context. I would say get immune with those websites and don't be too emotional. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: MakeMoneyBtc on April 11, 2019, 06:24:47 AM It's typical for this kind of news websites to spread different kind of news that attract more people to follow them so most of the times they are either clickbait or only partially true. I've never liked them and I also never follow them especially for this reason, they probably don't even know much about bitcoin but they post articles about it trying to get more views.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Harlot on April 11, 2019, 06:31:34 AM These fake crypto news media sites are jabbing as everytime and I think we don't need to get offended by it most of the time as its how the media works. The problem here is most of the crypto related news sites I see don't really have any quality news or at least news of their own as theybare all recycled from one another. That is why I don't make them my first source when I get news as they aren't really reliable, they can't even create their own news story and they will always connect everything pn why the market has moved that way.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: okala on April 11, 2019, 06:40:50 AM The media have always been negative about cryptocurrency and I expected nothing less from them because their are own and operated by the government and we all have known what the government stands is with bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: kingpin4321 on April 11, 2019, 06:47:42 AM You don't just expect everyone here to boycott CNN just because of that article.
Are I must ask who are the "we" in your context is it bitcointalk users or bitcoin holders? Nevertheless we all should no what to do with news or information that can create FUD Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: ribowo76 on April 11, 2019, 06:52:31 AM CNN is a propaganda tool for certain people, I believe. Whatever their interest in bitcoin, the news will not affect the development of bitcoin. Especially nowadays, the bitcoin community is getting bigger
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Siren on April 11, 2019, 06:58:11 AM The way i see it?why affected on their statements when that is really true?many of us are looking for another player to enter and buy crypto to help the market grow and i see nothing wrong about this
Looking for investors is just like a real state agenthos asking for someone to buy property because this will bring him profit same as the company. So whats the problem about that?you are just exaggerating to react mate.dont take it seriously instead use this as motivation Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: alisafidel58 on April 11, 2019, 06:59:21 AM Nothing new about those Media who always portray bitcoin this and that. US media news agency always spread negative news about bitcoin on a weekly basis. There's no point in boycotting that news agency it's not really worth the hassle.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: Mr.Ease on April 11, 2019, 07:05:13 AM It would really depend on who you consider "The Crypto Community"
If it's people who jumped in after bitcoin skyrocketed past 10-15k... Then sure, I can see why they would be bitching But if your more selective on who can be in the CryptoClan - Then I doubt many are begging for regulation or some whale to pump said shitcoin ::) The real crypto community understands how great times can be, and also how incredible devestating it can be. CNN loves emotions... That's why i wouldn't bother listening to them more than I would the Colbert report Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: zuziekatee on April 11, 2019, 07:16:44 AM There is nothing that seem like begging in the said article even though I am not a fan of CCN. Obviously investors will come in when the see great works and adoptions that Bitcoin is doing. You can’t beg someone to invest in what will benefit them only if they see it that way and not other way round. The way we see things and interpret me really matters a lot and it ususlaly have effect on our decisions.
Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: jakelyson on April 11, 2019, 07:27:02 AM OP should really check his title and change it accordingly. The website is CCN not CNN. Now people is throwing hate to CNN which is unfair to them.
We should be used to it right now, there are lots of bad publicity aimed at bitcoin before. This is nothing new. But you see, even with a bad news article, bitcoin still keeps growing. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: traderethereum on April 11, 2019, 10:02:42 AM I think the OP was in a hurry to tells us about the news, so he mistypes between CNN and CCN ;D
There will be much bad news like that, and I think we already saw that things always appear on around us almost every day. We don't have to confuse or bother with that news because it will give an impact to yourself if you still thinking about that news. Just think positive and let the bad news disappear by itself so you don't get any impact and you could always make your profit in crypto. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: franky1 on April 11, 2019, 10:14:24 AM C.C.N
not C.N.N seems a few posters just read titles and hit reply before doing any research. kind of funny that some shout out 'mainstream bad, need to make own cryptobased media..' yet its a crypto media the negative news is wrote on. its usually cryptomedia that copies and pastes negative, false, propaganda first in the hope the multiple copies of same story in multi crypto locations will draw mainstream media into following it dont become a sheep. dont just read short messages/titles and follow it. do some research Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: jvdp on April 11, 2019, 10:14:31 AM Skimmed through the article and I didn't seem to find anything regarding 'begging' but rather continuously relating bitcoin and conventional asset classes.

It has mentioned in the starting line itself buddy. I always love the crypto community that too from bitcointalk we all people welcoming the bull run and wishes bitcoin to touch the sky. As news site they should not rubbish and sharing fake lines. This news sites are the big problem and stopping investments over cryptos by spreading fake info. I see all are supporting crypto community. We must stay strong together. Thanks all. Yes changed as CCN correctly.

Long ago i decided never to read any news from CCN, Bitcoiners will not beg anybody either the whales to to boost the market but the whales know when and how to come in for their selfish interest. We all know that, whales are the most benefited individuals whenever the bull run kick start, so, why will the Bitcoiners beg them. Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: tomahawk9 on April 11, 2019, 10:47:22 AM This news sites are the big problem and stopping investments over cryptos by spreading fake info. False. These websites, CNN, CNBC, Bloomberg, etc, have never stopped throwing FUD towards Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market whenever they feel like it, but it hasn't stopped the industry from growing. Plus, smart investors don't take into consideration whatever these websites have to say about cryptos for their investment plan/strategy. If anything the fud/fake news from these sites have stopped the average joe from jumping into the crypto bandwagon but not smart money.Title: Re: Boycott CNN - Spreading negative news and mentioning we are begging whales Post by: jvdp on April 14, 2019, 08:17:04 AM OP should really check his title and change it accordingly.

This is nothing new. But you see, even with a bad news article, bitcoin still keeps growing. Unwanted spam. Please read the tile and my last reply on this thread. Moreover I have created this to share information for our own crypto community Bitcointalk, but I can see you all people working on finding text blunders and typo errors. Note down this not new but spreading fake news are need to consider like sick for cryptos. If possible try to trash them and please do not share any negative information about cryptos to anywhere. That's what we all need.

Supposed to say the same thing in regards of overanalyzing which do leads up some different approach of such news.Theres nothing being mentioned about begging.Overall, I don't fully rely or do completely trust on all media sites for their news to be real anytime. |
