There Is No War Against Bitcoin! Stop The Fud!

[SuperTA]

I see many users talking about how USA government and Trump declared a war against Bitcoin! No, they didn't. Listen their message again! They declared a war against the criminals who are using bitcoin for illegal activities. A huge difference! This will be a good thing in the longterm. So stop spreading this fud cuz of wrong interpretation. Many big players already know that dollar is dying. They know that dollar can't survive for a long time. As the dollar collapses in the near or middterm future, bitcoin will rise and rise enormously. They know that. They also know that the trigger for all of this could be the next major financial crisis where a lot of funds will go to gold and bitcoin. But because bitcoin is a low marketcap compared to gold, it will rise much more than gold. They know that and they will try to regulate it but they cannot stop it. They (USA Congress) already admited that bitcoin is unstoppable. No one can stop it. If you can't win them, join them. So eventually everyone will join bitcoin in the future.

Dood, its reverse social engineering they are lining their pockets, they created it. Trust me USA government holds more coins than Bulgaria.

SPOILER: THEY CAN BUY ALL THE COINS AT ANY PRICE IT DOES NOT MATTER TO THEM, THEY CAN CHANGE BITCOIN PRICE TO WHATEVER THEY WANT BUY SELLING AT A LOSS OR JUST PRINTING UNLIMITED FIAT AND BUY ALL THE SHIT UP

It is scare tactics to get your coins on the market, 2 years USD media will be singing a different tune about bitcoin, once they have almost of the supply.

It is the FED`S trojan horse, and you all fell for the trick, now guess what. You give them all your treats for free for another 100 years, dumbasses.

I can agree that people in crypto are easily triggered and by default declare governments and banks to be an enemy, and that while they have no clue about why they dislike them other than following the herd that has no clue either.

Governments for a long time ignored Bitcoin because they thought it would implode and lose all its value, but a decade later it's still here. I got the feeling that because of Libra they have started to take Bitcoin more serious.

As far as stopping the fud goes, it's impossible to do with how there are entire armies of bots automatically sharing news. News outlets wont stop with fud articles either because they attract a lot of clicks and therefore an important income stream.

Just ignore them! It is their habits and unable to stop, guys.
FUDs are always there. As long as Bitcoin has value, they will make more FUDs to take advantages from careless Bitcoin holders. 
We have already seen many negative issues as well and all of them will end after several weeks or months.
We have no ways to stop them, mate. Ignore them is only the solution for now.

For OP, you have done a good job by making this thread. Then, let others learn it their selves. A smart one won't be influenced, while careless one should learn to not make another mistake. 

[Dreamchaser21]

There's a big difference by reading only the title than to the whole article, people just don't know how to read maybe or really have no time to understand the article but have more time to create FUD in cryptomarket. We should keep telling people not to panic, and educate them as much as possible for us to see a better market.

[hatshepsut93]

Op, you are right that they didn't declare war against Bitcoin, but not for the reasons that you've mentioned (collapse of the US dollar and so on). We simply had some tweets of POTUS, which is like just his opinion, or more likely opinion of his advisors or someone from the government, there was no action yet. I admit, it's a bit worrying, but indeed, let's not spread FUD.

I don't think Libra is solely responsible for regulatory attention  that we are getting now, it started long ago - the SEC was taking action against multiple ICO's, Japan was issuing licenses to exchanges, China had a long history of statements and rumors about it and Bitcoin, some countries have banned it in the past.

They are imposing tax laws. Why would anybody be surprised that the IRS is sending Bitcoin and shitcoin traders letters about it? The IRS has the means to get the data out of pretty much any exchange out there, perhaps except the most outlandish ones that don't accept any fiat, but that's about it. As soon as you make a transaction into an exchange you better declare that shit.

Dood, its reverse social engineering they are lining their pockets, they created it. Trust me USA government holds more coins than Bulgaria.

They are most likely doing that OTC. They buy OTC to not push the price up, and they can proceed to dump, or the opposite if they want to manipulate the price up. This is limited in time tho, on the long term hard money always wins. They know this, so they can either try to kill Bitcoin, or attempt to accumulate as much as possible, and im sure phase 2 has begin because if they wanted to kill it the would have done it years ago when it was actually realistic. In other words: HODL.

[Searing]

Well tell these guys here.

I guess, with Libra, this whole 'crypto hobby $$$' are starting to make the powers that be...unsettled

I think this is funny.

We should not care about them since the people that would believe them would be really destroyed when they told people that knows everything that is happening. Also, most of that person posting about that war doesn't actually read the OP so, I don't think we should be worried.

[Darker45]

There might really be no war at all, or there could be. I couldn't care less, anyway. So what if there is a war? The result is pretty much clear as early as now.

The point is that remarks such as Bitcoin's value is based on thin air or that it is a perfect tool for crimes. Not to mention the IRS ganging up on cryptocurrency owners for supposedly unpaid taxes, the treasury secretary issuing dire warning against the future of Bitcoin. These statements and actions are interpreted by a lot of Bitcoin or cryptocurrency supporters to be a subtle declaration of war.

We are not worried because we know cryptocurrency already, the main purpose of that FUD is to make panic especially on newbies and by that it can lose millions of money. We know US are so supportive but I don't know why there's so much FUD about this war against bitcoin. Anyway, no matter what they've said bitcoin will still go up high and that's the choice of many believers.

I think it's safe to assume that the US Government has been buying large amounts of BTC for quite some time with the goal of destabilizing it.

[BlackFor3st]

Yes, a little misunderstanding will surely give a different meaning. Though you cannot blame someone that are spreading the fud as they have also an objectives, either they were being paid by someone to spread the fud in order to collapse the price of bitcoin so they can buy it in very low prices.

That is one of the disadvantages of bitcoin because illegal transactions can be done easily, so this is what US government are afraid of that is why they are declaring war against it.

[d_fitrie]

Learn some of the previous fud that has been created and all have the purpose of making careless people sell it at cheap prices, they will buy it at cheap prices in large quantities so that it gives the impact of a significant increase in an instant

[pooya87]

actually the "war" against bitcoin has been going on for nearly as long as it existed it just grows in size and cost the bigger bitcoin gets. of course the market participants who want cheaper prices have always used it as an excuse to exaggerate and turn it into FUD and make a bigger profit but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
as for the US government and their war, the recent chatter seems more like a war against Facebook and their Libra rather than bitcoin. they don't want to let this company become a bank this easily and out of their control.

[Anonylz]

i think the fud on btc is getting more worse in recent times than back in the early stage, nowadays people just fud over every little thing, too many misconception about btc out there, any newbie who invest on something he/she don't understand properly and loss money will create unnecessary fud, government trying by any means to create fud, make people loss interest on btc, in the midst of all this war and fud, btc still manage to survive.

[squatter]

Not a war, no, but a crackdown on regulatory noncompliance and tax evasion seems to be brewing.

Dood, its reverse social engineering they are lining their pockets, they created it. Trust me USA government holds more coins than Bulgaria.

They had hundreds of thousands of bitcoins after the Silk Road bust, yet they auctioned them all off in 2014 and 2015. Why didn't they hold onto them?

[timerland]

There is some truth to this post, but you will also need to believe some things other people say.

If the government and authorities really did want to stop money laundering and a lot of other illegal activities, they'd put more time into finding unmarked bills, because at this point the most popular payment option for money laundering and dark world services is still not BTC.

I also do not think that the government has a lot of BTC stashed and they are looking to centralize the currency. This is very apparent when they sold off most of the BTC they got from the silk road, which they all auctioned off. Just think about it logically - why would they do that if their goal was to centralize the supply?

[fiulpro]

Well when it comes to the Indian government , there is actually war against bitcoins.
The government is okay with bills with 10 year jail term drafted for people holding bitcoins , whereas can show number of cases with people just sentenced jail term for 7 year for Rape.
There are bills being drafted and maybe will soon be implemented.
People are leaving the government authority related to cryptocurrencies.
It is all a silent war.

[meanwords]

But to be honest, this kind of attention to Bitcoin are making it more popular to others. Just ignore them. The moment they let Bitcoin become so popular this past few years, Bitcoin already won the war against those who are against it.

Also there are speculations that China and Russia would be the next leader when it comes to financial which is why they are kind of staying away from dollars. Bitcoin would reign supreme in the future.
