CNBC just had about a 10-minute discussion on Bitcoin.  Not surprisingly, lots of FUD and misinformation.  Anyone get a video of it?

Apparently it is now officially used to fund terrorism, and can buy 'only a few items' at the Bitcoinstore.  Other than that its 'the classic pyramid scheme'.

*sigh*

The Bitcoin network protocol was designed to be extremely flexible. It can be used to create timed transactions, escrow transactions, multi-signature transactions, etc. The current features of the client only hint at what will be possible in the future.

it's only a matter of time.  first step is demonization to brainwash the mass consent of the particular agenda.  It's funny, CNBC had some positive articles about bitcoin the same day they trash talk.  They start to contradict on their never ending news cycle.

People still listen to them?  I avoid the three sisters like plague.  Shame; they probably have a lot of viewers.  But I don't think they do.  I think most people aren't watching television news anymore, and opted for online sources (that aren't television related, anyhow.)

But I'm only making guesses Tongue
