Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

As with any new technology, there will be doubt, distrust and lack of general interest. I believe bitcoin is here to stay, don't listen to the naysayers.
Nice compilation there OP

He, indeed, copied it from reddit... https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/3q8qd5/you_damn_fools_itll_never_work/Below is the most upvoted statement from reddit against this post... The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown. -- Carl Sagan. |

However, there are also other examples that were proven to be foolish and stupid ideas... time will tell. |

Pretty damn legit. People think we're crazy since they don't really know what's behind bitcoin and they do not want to take the time to do so.

Warren Buffet will go down in history as one of the best investors out there that got the last big prediction really wrong. Can't blame him tho, he is old as a dinosaur and has no idea how Bitcoin works. He should stick to more traditional stocks where he does great, but leave technology to people that has a clue about it.

That is his EXACT reason for not touching it actually. It is wise, don't mess with something you do not understand. |

I did not expect Warren Buffet to say something like that. Time for BTC to shine and show what a false statement Buffet made.

Do you think he understands or cares? He'll be dead long before it ever gets rolling properly. As he doesn't invest in any tech at all it stands to reason that BTC would be even less appealing. |

I'm sure there many more examples like this to be found. Sure I saw some similar ones about the internet and mobile phones. Would be good to add more examples.

if they were directly in charge of bitcoin, or more appassionate about the technology they are bashing, and not against it because they were idolize the opposite of it
then they would have a completely different statment about the matter, in other words this worlds is full of haters no-sense nothing new

He was right to a certain extent, but he failed to realize that comparing bitcoin to checks isn't valid, since bitcoin is limited in it's number.
If there were magical checks that complete transfer of money as fast as bitcoin, and if they were capped at 21 million as well, they as well would have value to them.
This W.B. has no logical thinking to his head, i'm surprised he even achieved anything in his life.
