Confirmed Bad News Sources Thread - No FUD, Just Facts!!!1

[chessnut]

Both Proudhon and Bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc have been recognised by international media as confirmed spokespeople for Bitcoin community:

http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/chinese-new-year-bitcoin-ban-end-days-or-empty-threat-1434495

This is a confirmed fact.

I can't believe what I'm reading:

Meanwhile, members of the BitcoinTalk forum have expressed fear over the potential closure of Chinese exchanges, with hundreds of posts gaining tens of thousands of views from the crypto-currency community.

One forum member, using the name 'Bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc' said that after 31 January, "Chinese can no longer do anything related to bitcoins. They can not withdraw money from Chinese exchanges. So the bitcoins they have on Chinese exchanges are 'dead'. They can not trade those bitcoins in for real money, or withdraw that money. It's like that money doesn't exist anymore."

This doomsday scenario was echoed by another used called 'Proudhon', who has contributed to the forum for three years. The user said bitcoin's fall from $1,200 to its current level of around $900 will "continue until bitcoins are worth $0."

Much of Proudhon's comments from "confirmed sources" have been dismissed by other forum users, but the sense of unknowing shared across the community is hard to ignore.

    

I CANT BELIEVE IT!!!
IT'S CONFIRMED!!
Proudhon is in the news Im so proud of you Proudhon!
This makes me question the accuracy of mainstream media - oh no wait - it doesn't.

What? They left out Walsoraj and Mucus?

What a snub.

Still, I'm impressed by Bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc. Not even out of gradeschool and he's already a spokesman for the Bitcoin community. Imagine how far he'll go when he actually learns that the blockchain isn't just a website.

I almost feel we should close this thread now, for what a fine way to end!

You start a parody thread to make fun of how the media/forum-trolls spreads FUD without doing due diligence, you post links to articles in Russian and Chinese that have nothing to do with bitcoin, blow everything completely out of proportion, inspire forum members to generate fake documents and conspiracy theories, and in general just act so stupid that your mind blown that anyone could take this thread seriously....

...and then still--despite all of that--have the MSM report Proudhon's sources as "confirmed."

This really made my day guys.  Cheers to everyone who's contributed to the many good sources of bad news!

+1000.

It's simply incredible. It's a short-circuit of sources.
We can call it a Self-fulfilling confirmation.

Please someone call Proudhon!

[chessnut]

I think at the end of the day the real lesson to be learned is; always make sure that your sources are confirmed.
right proudhon?

Proudhon needs to reconfirm his confirmed sources.

More CONFIRMED bad news. This thread just meta'd up.

[TooDumbForBitcoin]

They're having bad dreams over in the Wall Observer thread:

Look at the chart - It's almost time for the next FUD. What'll it be?

More Gox FUD.

Tiger Direct drops bitcoin.

Someone says they have cracked SHA 256.

A US Senator brings a private members bill to make possession of bitcoin a felony.

The Bitcoin Foundation website gets hacked.

Lots of ideas for more FUD. 

rumors (confirmed) about btce closing due to russian laws.

btcchina drops bank deposits again.

Someone says they have cracked EC.

Someone claims someone has exploited the 'vulnerability' mentioned in the other thread.

Updates on FBI coin dumping.

A bunch of coins move or 'days destroyed' on the blockchain.

Someone else is arrested.

News from the hearing about excessive regulation which will discourage small business or consumer usage of bitcoin.

PBOC says something about corporate bank accounts and bitcoin (this is the big one).

Something happens to BitPay.

China banking defaults

Time to run some of these up the falg poel and see who confrims them.

Winklevoss ETF will not get launched this year.

However, Moriarty isn’t optimistic about the proposal, even with the as-yet unannounced revisions. She told Bloomberg that she believes it is unlikely to pass in 2014.

This is just too hilarious.  Also, I loved the way so many bitcoin n00bs who either unknowingly took Bitcoinlitecoinbtcltc and Proudhon seriously (and thus added to the FUD spreading), or were in on the joke and also added to the FUD spreading.  Classic.

I wouldn't put the 2 in the same class. Proudhon is a venerable and imaginative master troll.

Bitcoinlitcoinbtcltc is just an apprentice:
