For the last three years i have involved in Bitcoin community the mosth strange think that i never understand is why person that have grow from Bitcoin and that everything that do now is from bitcoin the turn against it and they spread fud for it.
Yesterday have read an article from international Business Times "Vitalik Buterin theorises about monetising an Ethereum browser, the price of Bitcoin and education in China". Was an interview from Vitalik Buterin a bitcoin pioneer and now the ethereum genius or something like that.
The interview has dozens of fud from Vitalik to the Bitcoin.
I will arrange some of them..
"Bitcoin itself, and that includes both Bitcoin as a currency and for payments and Bitcoin as a store of value – it really hasn't grown.
"The price is down 80%. BitPay has had to fire a number of employees a couple of weeks ago, and there's a few other companies that are definitely struggling.
"Changetip is pivoting to US dollars, Circle is pivoting to US dollars. So Bitcoin as a payment system is definitely not doing as well as a lot of people had hoped."
first bitpay did not fire their employees for the bitcoin decline price but for their fault and loose of some thousand bitcoins with the case of the social engineering attack. This is the first lie in the article and is obvious to promote his project against bitcoin. What a hell?
And he continuous...
"Bitcoin itself, and that includes both Bitcoin as a currency and for payments and Bitcoin as a store of value – it really hasn't grown.
this is a big lie. We have see an extreme increase of using in countries like Argentina, Brazil and in developing world. In Greece that i live with capital controls Bitcoin is the only way for someone to continue to buy something from outside of this country. Bitcoin is going very well as payment system and every day more and more shops accept it. Why he lies about that and the most strange is why they want to hurt Bitcoin fro promotion of their projects?
