What I find interesting about this is that they clearly view all forms of digital money in the same light.  They cannot (yet) discern what is unique about bitcoin relative to other forms of digital money (past and present).  In time they will.

It is a group of people... not sure how many.  I also don't know if there is one "primary" guy and a bunch of subordinates or if it's just a pool of writers.

No one really knows who or how many Tyler Durden is...but he's not "any one."   He is the main poster and admin of Zerohedge.com.

Zerohedge has been doom and gloom for years yet the world keeps turning and it is business as normal.

Truth...but so too, the Turkey.  Being fed daily and fattening up, he might begin to believe it is the role of man to serve him....but in reality come slaughter-day....

They've been the only source of real economic and trading news in the financial sphere that isn't afraid to show how the debt is ballooning, all over the world, and the 'characters' that have put us there.

They've become so popular, a recent server move/upgrade was performed in the last month just to keep up with all the traffic. As for particular claims of when the market is going to meltdown, sure, there have been plenty of contributing articles that don't hit the mark.

Try lurking for a while, you'll see what is on target and what is pure speculation. Overall, the information available trumps anything on the internet for finance, bar none.

  Oh, nonsense.  The econometric data from Calculated Risk (http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/) is far more useful, and the predictions more considered and accurate over the last few years.
