Title: Is financial blogger Karl Denninger censoring his own anti-Bitcoin articles?? Post by: solex on June 13, 2014, 09:52:48 AM Karl Denninger, the multi-millionaire blogger on matters economic and political normally turns his polemic style onto Wall Street and Washington DC corruption, but he fully unleashed the flamethrowers onto Bitcoin last year.
http://beforeitsnews.com/img/profiles/0000000000002086.jpeg Now, however, is he taking a lesson from the dirty play-book of the Chinese Communist Party which wants to erase the Tiananmen Square massacre from the pages of history? A search for "Bitcoin" on http://market-ticker.org/ reveals zero matches, even though he published three or four articles like this one: The Mt.Gox and Bitstamp debacles prove that Bitcoin is not a perfectly secure currency and that the “Bitcoin ecosystem” is quite dangerous. True or false? It is true but not because of these problems. Bitcoin has never been a currency, because in order to be a currency it needs to be two things. First, it needs to be a medium of exchange... [etc etc] http://beforeitsnews.com/economy/2014/02/the-market-ticker-bitcoin-interview-wvor-2597556.html Today (July 13th, 2014) this Market Ticker article is missing, showing "Post Not Available" with a baby-pink background. http://www.market-ticker.org/akcs-www?post=228725 Has he got the guts to publicly admit that he was wrong, and take a proper look at Bitcoin technology, and finally write a balanced article? One that will permanently remain on his website? Title: Re: Is financial blogger Karl Denninger censoring his own anti-Bitcoin articles??

Yes, Bitcoin has it's weakneses that CAN be fixed, but some of Bitcoin hater are going way too far with what they type and publish. I guess, sooner or later it will blow up in their faces.

Post by: StatusSeeking on June 16, 2014, 05:59:18 AM The main one I notice is that he spends a lot of time destroying a straw man argument - that Bitcoin will replace national currencies. I don't think most people expect Bitcoin to replace national currencies; it fills a niche demand for methods of transferring wealth outside the traditional financial system.
