Why do people keep saying BTC is dead?!

[_Miracle]

It's like Elvis, people insist on saying he died, but everybody knows he didn't.

lol I think it's different, you can not equate bitcoin with living things, bitcoin will always live even if the price will fall $ 1

Actually no. If btc price falls to 1$, no one will mine btc because it would cost them lots of money to do so. If nobody mines btc, no transaction can be done. If no transactions can be done, it's hard to call btc "alive", cause it doesn't do anything.

If bitcoin goes below a dollar, people will still mine and run nodes.
I gave an undervolted S1 to a friend after my upgrade.
I didn't sell it, probably won't and I'd venture to guess that many enthusiasts
have their own way of supporting the network, should such a time come.
Right now, that you can make money with bitcoin is an interesting feature
(ok, ok I love that feature ;-)
BUT
I'm willing to follow "this experiment" to the point when it IS money or nothing.

After the Hearn mess and other people getting scared after he dumped, no wonder people were worried. Soon BTC will come back and more doubters will be gone.

Less doubters and more believers will make us stronger than before. If we stay believing for as long as BTC is to survive, we can.

who said that only people panic . Well, because when the mike give statemant that bitcoin is dead and bitcoin is a test that failed . but it will not last long , especially later occur halving , bitcoin will be more expensive .

[Mr.grin]

I guess they only heard rumors about it and pass it on, it may also be supported by a decline in prices bitcoin very fast at the moment, but perhaps they are not aware that the price of bitcoin is always like that

[HarizDB]

The people who constantly throws threads on Bitcointalk about the digital currency, whatever it is Bitcoins, Altcoins or any other e-coin is dead, stagnating or whatever are just seeking to get attention. Why do these threads have in common?
1. The title: BTC is dead - YOU HAVE TO SELL NOWWWW
2. The text: BTC IS JUST DEAD NOW, LOOK, IT FELL FROM USD 400 TO USD 395
3. No sources: With sources, I mean articles or statements from economics or from so-called "crypto-coin experts"

these people have a hidden agenda. nowadays people talk down on bitcoin because they are being part of the group that supports bitcoin unlimited and the other alternatives.

That is false information,because BTC now dropped bit down,but that is not tragic. I remember the days when Bitcoin has been 200$

After watching "The Big Short" I understand now that there is nothing off the table for banks to maintain the status quo.

[praprata]

The people that are kinda new in to in there are just screaming when the price is going down.
Is also like Euro or Dollar, but those currency don't drop that low. Bitcoin is still the best.

I believe it's people who don't want bitcoin to succeed
Or it's one of those people who lose a bunch to bitcoin
and aren't able to make any profits out of it

It is because of media. And mainly, their interest is to destroy Bitcoin by making it worthless.

It is just speculation without a solid foundation, people just like to troll everytime

Exactly. a lot of people don't want bitcoin to succeed.
So they trash talk, and are letting other bitcoin owners doubt the decisions they made.

Yup this time the price is at the range of 400 dollars so now is not dieing anymore.
Those people that wanted to buy to bad the price is now at 400 dollars.

The price in 350 dollar was good to but bitcoin.

The reason is that people don't have faith in bitcoins, even a small fluctuation in bitcoin price will make them feel that bitcoin is dead, media have played a great role in spreading the negative news related to bitcoins, and people who say that it is dead either they are not aware about the bitcoins or they haven't used it anytime they are just carried away from the news that they listen to.

people who won't see bitcoin success or even exist are the people who have no idea about bitcoin they just make a speculation.
without knew what effect that caused by their speculation in the future. in the end bitcoin stakeholders affraid that bad speculation happened.
just like last week bitcoin price dropped to almost 20% many people believe its caused by mikehearn speculation earlier.

I believe that's the reason as well for the price drop
Whenever something like that happens, it's obviously a reason for a price drop
People tend to chicken out whenever some developer quits.

[praprata]

They are scared seeing bitcoin going low and not going up again.
That is why they are saying it is dead, actually is never been dead before is going down.
This year I hope it will be the year like in 2013 that got to 1200 dollars.
