How can we stop Bitcoin's negative publicity?-Rebranding.

[ngm22585]

"Rebranding" cannot occur until bitcoin starts gaining in price again.  That's the only way the "rebranding" will work for the masses.

Eh, no. Bitcoin is already an established cryptocurrency, to rebrand it now will just confuse people even more. If they get confused, it may drive people away. However, what needs to be done is to stop scammers and hackers. To stop spreading lies about it (FUD) and to properly educate those who are new to cryptocurrency.

[BrewMaster]

no, only because you are alone in this!

since bitcoin is a decentralized system, any kind of change for bitcoin will require consensus of the majority of this system. and when it comes to things like "rebranding" bitcoin, you are the only one who thinks it is a good idea so it won't happen ever.

[St4yInTh3D4rk]

we need to educate what is bitcoin if we want to help the crypto community because most of the people think that bitcoin is only for money making in short term so they were convincing others also do the same those kind of people don't care about centralized or decentralized that is how people understand that,so we need to educate why we need to adopt to the decentralized money.

no, because it's everyone's right, and they drop bitcoin for their own benefit by utilizing the rights they have. don't change someone to stop giving negative bitcoin news, but try to make people believe in bitcoin

[Dukjila]

So I am subscribed to quite a few crypto news and general news websites; and one thing that frustrates me to no end is to see such negative publicity of this currency!
And I know most of the people are of the opinion that bitcoin doesn't really need publicity! But I think a little rebranding is very much needed to put bitcoin in the good light.Try to focus on the good things of it, its qualities, maybe it will help it to stabilize or something?
Whats your say on this?

They are trying to sway the market with negative news, manipulate Bitcoin prices, because stability is the enemy of the trader.

Firstly, we are in a free world where every one can say his/her opinion which is the reason why we can't stop those people posting and saying negative things about bitcoin but what we can do is also post positive news and the features which bitcoin had. Have you checked that with the negative news they said about bitcoin it never stop bitcoin and luckily for us we have some prime ministers that also admirer bitcoin.

Rebranding isn't going to change anything, I think bitcoin has a far better image than it did a few years ago, it still gets a bad name when they put it alongside crime in the headlines but I think overall it is in far better shape.

We now see a lot of companies and finance such as the recent Fidelity news taking an interest.
Imagine what will happen once it really takes off.

Everything that is good always has some enemies. And they spreads some bad news about it and we all know the bad news attracts people easily and they starts to react accordingly. That's what happens to every good things and it's very hard to reverse, and when the Government and the banks are against it then you know what happens,they influences people more about the negativity. So it becomes more harder until the government recognizes it and allows it with some rules. Or you can't stop the negative publicity because the governments are helping the publishers.

There's nothing we can do but show the bright side of bitcoin which I think the block chain world summit are one of the best way to do that. However, I strongly believe some banking sectors and selfish government are responsible for all this negative news been said about bitcoin.

In my personal opinion rebranding is not necessary, and even if it's done it'll not have the desired impact you're trying to achieve. These people who like to spread fud will never stop, they'll continue to spread fud and even will use the rebranded news to create more panic, if you're observing closely every time there's a slight dip in the prices there's a eye catching headline millions wiped out in minutes which is false most of the times. It's best to ignore such sites and simply focus on the good qualities of bitcoins.

[PsylockReborn]

Mostly those people who are spreading the FUD and negativity about bitcoin are those people who are involve in different technology. They want their own coin to be recognized not bitcoin. Some are skeptics who doesn't believe in the technology and know nothing about it.

We can't stop those negative publicity about bitcoin but we can help promote the advantages and benefits that it can offer us. This technology is still so young and when the right time comes that bitcoin will be stable that's the time the skeptics will regret everything they say about this awesome technology.

You can never stop people from having their opinions and seriously there is nothing in the world that you won't find a group of people having to say negative things about it. Bitcoin will come out stronger irrespective of the negative publicity.

It's very difficult to create positive advertising for the product that has created bad advertising for itself. If bitcoin hadn't jumped high at the end of 2017 and if it hadn't fallen in 2018, there would have been no bad publicity. I think everything will fall into place, and the crypt will say a weighty word in its defense.

The price volatility you are talking about is not problem. Because bitcoin is regulated yet. After regulations that can be changed. We should focus on the technology and the benefits of a decentralized system.

It's already gaining value again. Did you see the charts on Monday?

Rebranding will never work. There are many reasons for that.
-people don't want it
-you won't be able to reach a consensus
-It's not needed and wouldn't change anything. Most of the world would know that this new coin called digital gold or whatever is bitcoin. You wouldn't fool anyone.
-It would only give altcoins that want to be Bitcoin like BCH what they want: more confusion that would allow them to make people think they're buying the real Bitcoin when they're investing in their altcoin.

Re branding of bitcoin will do more harm than good as it will create huge confusion in the market. Bitcoin has just started to be recognized and a lot of people are still sceptical about it. At this delicate time, re-branding will create identity confusion among that class of people which can escalate very easily.

Positive marketing efforts are necessary but with the original identity. I don't see any significance of "re-branding" just to stop negative publicity!! There are other ways to spread positivity about anything and it doesn't really require such a drastic overhaul, this is for extreme cases only where some company faces reputation risk due to some internal actions.

Rebranding??how can u say bitcoin to be rebrand.
i dont think negative publicity can destroy bitcoin.negative publicity is good for bitcoin bcz in this way more people getting to know about bitcoin.

[mensahkkofie]

How is that possible to rebrand with bitcoin. Most of the activities in the world of crypto is scripted by the decentralized blockchain technology. Individuals as crypto enthusiasts can only do better by promoting bitcoin in the positive light.

[flyingplows]

  Many tried to rebrand and remake bitcoin into something better, but they only created shitcoins with a few exceptions which are worth something, but really not even close to bitcoin as for a name and influence..
