It’s official. Coindesk is no longer the Voice of Digital Currency

Dear Coindesk,
First, let me say I am disappointed with your publication. Disappointed enough that I want to use the F word, but my sister tells me it turns people off when reading things online. I will refrain. My team has busted their bums since I quit consulting with CoinTerra, without my paycheck, we have zero income and hustling to compete with well funded companies (Pantera Capital recently reported over $240 million this year) is exhausting. Our competition is your site and I respect and admire you guys enough to know it will be a big task to take the mantle from you........

Sorry guys, but there are lots of charts and graphs you need to see. https://ihb.io/2014-11-09/news/official-coindesk-longer-voice-digital-currency-13393

A lot of strong arguments made.

This can be nasty, if it goes out of control..... Ravings of a nut job or the truth laid bare?

I always take whatever is said, with a pinch of salt. {Bad news sells papers}

Voice of reason? We will see soon.

We're they ever? Huh

Dear Coindesk,

First, let me say I am extremely angry right now, I am so angry with your publication that I want to use the F word, but my sister tells me it turns people off when reading things online, so I will refrain. My team has busted their bums since I quit consulting with CoinTerra, without my paycheck, we have zero income and we are hustling to compete with companies that were funded with over $240 million alone this year. We wanted everything to be perfect on our new website for our official launch, but you guys screwed up one too many times and I respect the actual hardworking people of the bitcoin community too much to stay quiet and you are a clear and present danger to bitcoin.

You are are forcing me to change my plans because right now you deserve to be shut down

Sorry guys, but there are lots of charts and graphs you need to see. https://ihb.io/2014-11-09/news/official-coindesk-longer-voice-digital-currency-13393

I am not a nut job. I can't do this deep dive, I just hope it is looked into. I don't want the entire industry to get hurt. Thank you for reading.

your ssl is broken.

I am not sure it is us. You aren't the first to have this issue, but you are in the less than 1% who have. For the past few weeks we have been trying to determine what the issue is.

I am still looking into the matter, actually getting a bit upset by this.

are you on chrome? and is it up to date? if you don't mind it would help us troubleshoot if you were comfortable giving me those details.

sorry for that and here is the article on google drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7nx8IQvT9sCaTFDYklnbklCU2s/view

Could you rewrite this, focusing on what it is you claim Coindesk have done wrong? As it is, you spend half the article ranting about how pissed off you are without even a single mention of what you're going on about.

Just their bad reporting, trying to tie a recent hash rate drop to the fire incident, the dates were horribly wrong. shoddy journalism.

CoinDesk is a news site, it never was a voice of cryptos. This not only a CoinDesk problem, the crypto scene is littered with ammature wannabe journalists.

Yes, I got that part, although your concerns about cloud mining remain a little sketchy to me. My point is, if you want to get the word out about something, don't bury the message in a wall of personal lamentation. Clarity is important.

What were you confused about when I was giving my opinions about cloud mining? I clearly stated I believed they were scams.
