This is the Spirit folks, this is how you will get bitcoin killed

[mk4]

I wonder how this will get Bitcoin killed. Things like these even end up making bitcoin popular. People who fail to make income from bitcoins end up attacking bitcoins and say bad and negative things about it.

Saying that bitcoin will get "killed" because of this bad advertisement is over exaggerating. This won't kill bitcoin. It's just really really bad publicity in my opinion(yes, I understand. Publicity is publicity). But they could've probably done the advertisement better.

bitcoin popularity comes from the unpopularity and tiredness of the people with the banking cartel, not from beeing bitcoin.

bitcoin investors unfortunately think and are forced to think the later and so they are marketing the later thinking bitcoin is valuable because its bitcoin

but they are wrong and they will fail

This will not affect bitcoins (im)popularity, you are bitcoiner or not. It will not offend people who don't have bitcoins. They simply do not care about cryptocurrencies and just wonder what nocoiner means. And it will not increase bitcoins popularity either.

Yes, chances are no one(or a very small amount of people) will actually be offended by this advertisement. But my point is that it still gives them the impression that people who hold and invest in bitcoin are sort of arrogant crybabies.

It may or may not result in people getting offended, but that is immaterial. If a few people are drawn to trying out Bitcoin, either due to curiosity or due to fear of missing out, then its purpose is served. There is no such thing as bad publicity.

well vitalik took it as an unpolite slur, and used his social capital to oppose it.

i think we can say that this commercial has backfired

I agree that bad publicity is still publicity, but I kinda disagree with "there is no such thing as bad publicity". I definitely would not prefer bad publicity in a FUD level, on articles like "bitcoin has been hacked" or something along those lines. Sure it still helps people know about bitcoin's existence, but those kind of publicity would most probably push them away from actually reading about bitcoin and giving it a chance.

Well, considering the growth of Bitcoin user base in last few years and the momentum of it. I don't think we need to give **** to these people. I am not against constructive criticism but such campaign is not a wise example of it. These people should come on board and help us to make Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies better instead of wasting time and money in this way.

You're missing the entire point of bitcoin. It's not designed to be a moneymaking opportunity. Its designed to be a digital financial instrument to increase the fluidity of money and make it easy to transfer from point to point around the globe.

This slogan is a pathetic, uninformed plea to get the general public to buy into bitcoin, probably coordinated at the behest of huge bagholders who bought in earlier in the year, or late last year.

Bitcoin is not meant to be an investment. That's not a matter of opinion.

[GaryCynthia]

I think some peoples are occurring this negative publicity. I don’t think it will affect bitcoin. So don’t afraid you can invest on bitcoin.

[lyla rose]

I don't think bitcoin can get killed so easily. Everyday the popularity of bitcoin is rising and people are adopting bitcoin gradually. It has provided so much conveniency to people.

Nocoiner ad is just an extension of the Bitcoiners that accept Bitcoins like a false religious fanatic and not as it truly is just a technology product.

Reason and logic is not their strong suit as they are unable to understand the obstacles that faces their tech product.

Bitcoin's
1.  Energy Waste is not sustainable.
2.  Has become centralized and therefore vulnerable to government control
3.  Utility usage can be manipulated by a vulnerable fee system  
4.  If Bitcoin Network Costs exceed the Production Cost & Transaction Fees, then the network can't survive for long.

* Many of the religious zealots think the warehouses full of asics make bitcoin more secure, but since thinking is not their strong suit ,
 they fail to realize that much centralization now means that Governments can decide who is & who is not allowed to confirm bitcoin transactions. *

*So any Bitcoin Miner that includes a transaction from a Government blacklisted address, will automatically get their power turned off.*  

Mention the following to a bitcoin religious fanatic , and all you get back , that is fud , or you don't understand bitcoin, or Bitcoin is King.

Bitcoin is a tech product , nothing more , nothing less and as such is vulnerable to real world situations that can arise.

They’re just making a fool of themselves. Or maybe they just want to earn from royalty fees from that word. Either way, it’s not gonna kill bitcoin. Good or bad, it’s still publicity.

[ladydark]

It has nothing to do with making bitcoin unpopular.People who were crazy towards bitcoin would just turn a deaf ear to such things and the bitcoin rally would still continue.

[farnandezetn]

Bitcoin is one of the best cryptocurrencies available in the market. It is the 1st cryptocurrency invented and still ranks 1st among all other cryptos in the market. Though the prices are dropping nowadays, but soon the market is going to be stable again.

[zinson01]

basically I don’t believe this because after shatoshi a few number of people developed this system and this is fully false news I guess because there is no controlled in bitcoins few developer may works for developments but no one can monitor this huge system because its blockchain system of btc.

[makatia]

I do not think it will not give any negative impact on bitcoin, instead it will spread it.
This will not kill bitcoin. It really is really bad publicity in my opinion

[croptodic]

Based on this in here no one is going to force you to invest money in crypto market where as many people adapt this system for their better future and profit based on this types of comments may harm to the users of crypto currency also btc is already developed no need to compare or bulling anything.

[firec8]

A lot of negative news about Bitcoin
We need reason to face these news, not to be influenced by them, and insist on our own beliefs.
This will allow others to change Bitcoin.
