"Bitcoin is Dead" - Mike Hearn

[yanesna3]

Just another unpopular person who try to gain popularity? He's just nothing compared to all of bitcoin user,his comment will not affect anything so its just kind of useless news

Yes his fake news will not affect in bitcoin community maybe he only  want is popularity. Bitcoiner's believe and trust in bitcoin so that they continue investing even have risk . They believe bitcoin will recover and rise again and give us good profit in our investment.

I have paid my attention to the date of this thread. The post was left here in 2016, January! I just can guess when people that believed these words thought in December  2017- the first part of January 2018.

Bitcoin Classic rolls out, and days later there is no word about it in the News Media.

Mike Hearn declares Bitcoin dead and within hours it is in the New York Times.....
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/17/business/dealbook/the-bitcoin-believer-who-gave-up.html

Mark my words: Bitcoin is getting ready to be in a fight for it's life.

On one side are the Blockstream/Core players.  Liars, manipulators, shill, not afraid to destroy the fabric of Bitcoin with every bit of FUD they can dredge up - even if it kills bitcoin, but if they can't have total control, no one can.

On the other side you have Mike Hearn w/R3CEV/Hyperledger/Banks (AND Mainstream Media & Govt backing - don't forget that!)

We are at the start of a foot race to see who gets ready forst for the upcoming global financial meltdown. 

It's pretty clear that Bitcoin Classic will prevail in the upcoming March Fork given the huge amount of support / concensus for it.  But Blockstream seems to wat to make this a do or die fight, and they appear to be willing to destroy the good name of bitcoin if they don't get their way.  The looming battle may be the perfect backdrop of confusion and chaos for a Fiat Coin to rise from the shadows, and with the help of Gov't & Media nods - be introduced to the masses.

Fasten your seatbelts kiddies.... this is going to be a wild ride.  Right now I am betting 50% on Classic / 50% on Fiat Coin.  Current 1mb Blockstream/Core Coin not even worth mentioning in my opinion.  I see 0.001%.

Mike Hearn is a very influencing business man and I respect his each and every state as if he has said that bitcoin is going to be ready for the fight for its life then he might have think once before saying this but I don’t think that bitcoin will get dead as I strongly believe that bitcoin is a sustainable crypto currency and it has even proved its worth by making its existence since more than a decade so time will answer whether the bitcoin will get dead or will alive for decades but I feel that bitcoin will stay for decades.

At this point of time ,we all are aware how the nature of bitcoin can't be determined by a single (mostly ignorant)personalities or even a group of people for that matter.Bitcoin was the most stable financial asset of 2015 overtaking the share market.All I can see is bitcoin live than ever.

[romelitoparcon]

NO! Cryptocurrency will live forever! and bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency.

how this project works , i dont know any information about it...anyone tell me about this ...

[rtm125]

Two years have passed since this news, and bitcoin is still alive and developing. Therefore, I do not believe the skeptical statements about the death of bitcoin. He doesn't die anyway, he just gets better.

[tiktak89]

And yet we are seeing bitcoin developing and thriving. And its prospects are still very great - I am sure that very soon we will be able to use it as a currency, as more and more countries accept it. Therefore, what kind of death of bitcoin can we talk about?

[Udrujec]

I don't understand people who constantly claim that bitcoin will die. He is only developing and he really needs support. But instead, he is increasingly surrounded by skepticism. But despite all these reports, I still continue to believe in bitcoin and buy it.

[bigbosma]

And what do we see now? Bitcoin is alive and not even going to die. Yes, now he is not in the best position and its price has fallen, but it is only a stage of its growth, but not a sign of his death.

[DarkDays]

People have been saying Bitcoin is dead since the day it came out, doesn't matter if it's from a Bitcoin developer or some random, Bitcoin clearly is not dead. The fact is Bitcoin has a market cap in the $100b range, you wouldn't say a forbes top 2000 company is dead would you? Well that's basically what Bitcoin is equivalent to.

[Jackolantern]

I think that btc will never die and if this happens then another coin will replace it because the digital currency is the best way to earn and the digital currency is our future which will never disappear

Yes his fake news will not affect in bitcoin community maybe he only  want is popularity. Bitcoiner's believe and trust in bitcoin so that they continue investing even have risk . They believe bitcoin will recover and rise again and give us good profit in our investment.

This makes information that is not very useful for everyone because not everyone will believe that easily. All do not have a clear truth to believe.

I did not count how many times bitcoin dead every year. From the beginning to now, more than 300 times big people said Bitcoin is dead, but bitcoin always back to high price and proved them wrong. Bitcoin is dead and I am the satoshi things are very familiar with every crypto enthusiasts! Some people like to talk these things to come in limelight, nothing else.

I have read one too many Bitcoin is dead or dying headliner, now I am just optimistic about a not Bitcoin dead future

Everytime price has down many claims bitcoin to be dead but still other users opt to choose to stay in bitcoin. Despite the fact of volatility of price I still believe the future ahead on bitcoin. It will not dead nor become worthless rather bitcoin will become very useful in the future.

[Bonsaiav]

In my personal opinion when bitcoin is declining, that's where bitcoin is said to die. But when the price goes up, it means that bitcoin is alive again. Death and life of bitcoin will come in succession not unlike with fluctuations in bitcoin prices.

[raking]

It is not dead. You objectively, the Bitcoin market is still alive and well, and Blockchain digital platform that relies on bitcoin coins still works. As Elizabeth Stark points out on Twitter, people like to claim that Bitcoin is dead to confuse users forcing them to sell bitcoins at low prices.

[chrisbenoit]

Can we just end this drama ? Why could bitcoin dead soon? Bitcoin iis fiture of money that could not be dead.

[Cloudbet]

We are actually tracking the amount of times bitcoin has 'died' in the mainstream media since 2011 at the Cloudbet blog: Bitcoin is dead

I enjoy posting it in the comments section of articles making the claim
