Mainstream media just follow trends, selling news about what audience is eagerly looking for. Unfortunatly number of trash quality content there is still high.
I agree. So called mainstream media is just riding the popularity of bitcoin now. Like many market analyst are also including bitcoin in their daily segment. You wouldn't see such media attention a few years back. What we can't see before is all negative news about bitcoin. But now very positive, but some are completely rubbish, to be honest.
