Why do many people who do not understand Bitcoin slander Bitcoin?

[Collinsty]

Maybe it's because they think that Bitcoin is only related to getting rich overnight or cutting leek, but they don't realize that the related blockchain technology revolution is coming.

I feel that everyone is speculating, not for the "value" of BitcoinAlthough Bitcoin is indeed valuable, it seems that everyone is not going for his value, but for speculation.

[Nora Olin]

One point of curiosity: aren't the currencies issued today all credit currencies?
These currencies are not valuable in nature and rely on credible government guarantees. And the government will print paper money on a large scale, diluting civilian assets, such as four trillion
I don’t know much about Bitcoin. But as far as I know, its currency cannot grow at all, and there is no way to "print and distribute" Bitcoin to cut leeks.

So, why do you still say that Bitcoin is a scam?
Doesn’t it seem more reliable than government currency?

Why do some people oppose Bitcoin and support the blockchain? I think Bitcoin is the foundation of blockchain.

[kiki8899]

In my opinion, the blockchain has two application targets, enterprise-level and public. When the technology developed is facing enterprises, it is natural that some enterprises do not need tokens to pay. If users are replaced by the general public, then the reward mechanism of using tokens is necessary. If facing the public also use regular fees, then centralized operators can also use bribery to change most of the nodes, which is the so-called 51% computing power attack, which affects the credibility of this system.

In most cases, people start their introduction to bitcoin with misinformation or are introduced by people who oppose bitcoin. And unfortunately they tend to close themselves to the accurate information about bitcoin that they will get afterwards. So, any negatives that happen to bitcoin in the future such as crashes will be exaggerated which further confirms the negative view.

I think, bitcoin and blockchain are still new and it is difficult to convince these kinds of people that they really feel the benefits of blockchain technology by themselves.

Most of it is because of their lack of knowledge of Bitcoin and no basic self-judgment of investment.

Why do so many morons defend bitcoin?

I see lots of people knowledgeable about BTC criticizing it, yet I only see morons defending btc.

It's a ponzi pyramid scam, get over it, and pump&dump while you can.

[wendy sy]

Bitcoin and blockchain are not easy to understand, and most of the cognitive scope lacks such things.
1. People who understand technology do not necessarily understand Bitcoin.
2. People who understand the economy do not necessarily understand Bitcoin.
There is no right or wrong in conceptual things, at least not so many right and wrong. Some people can't understand this.

[Tina H]

Most of the people who do such things are people who have lost money because of Bitcoin, or people who have lost money because of some other digital currencies. On the one hand, they lack knowledge of Bitcoin and have no basic self-judgment on investment. As soon as these people see that someone is making money because of a certain number or someone else, they will buy coins and lose money as a result. In the end they will blame Bitcoin for all this and then slander Bitcoin.

It is simply a combination between arrogance and ignorance and nothing else...

Let's say you know something about a topic and someone else does not know about it, then they will be jealous and they will go into a defensive state, where they hide their insecurities and simply dismiss your interest or even attack it. The need to be right or to be superior in knowledge, override their thinking to explore new ideas.

It is easier to dismiss the "unknown", than to take the effort to research or explore it.... because people will always try to take the easy route.

Also, people are bombarded with scams and cons on a daily basis and the norm is, if it is too good to be true.. it simply is a scam. (I have seen experiments where cash was put on a table and a poster saying "Free Cash" was placed beside it... and 90% of people walked past it, because they did not trust that something can be FREE with no strings attached.  

Now tell someone that you made 800% profit on your Crypto currency investment and the immediate response will be that it was illegal or that it was some kind of scam.

After the recent bleak market. Many people do not even understand the basic principles of Bitcoin and blockchain knowledge, so they attack Bitcoin. What kind of mental state is this?

hello sir, I understand what you feel at this time seeing the brusa bitcoin drop dramatically, these people are not mentally strong or better known as panic sell, people who panic sell may not understand the basics of bitcoin, the point is they will sell everything when bitcoin price crashes, that's probably what is called panic selling

Well, you said it yourself, they don't understand Bitcoin. You can not speak intelligently on something you don't understand and the only way to react if you want to react to the topic is to speak against it. So it is no surprise that things like this will happen with such people.

[jesselui]

People disparage what other people make money for, that is, things that they themselves cannot make money for. We can call it a kind of jealousy. This is why a large segment is making bitcoin bad. Another segment of people are denigrating them because they do not trust bitcoin.

Usually people often attack and slander Bitcoin, indeed people who don't know Bitcoin properly. They lack education and learn Bitcoin from the wrong
sources, so they sometimes do things they don't really understand. And it must be admitted that people who think negatively about Bitcoin are always
there and they will not believe Bitcoin has a bright future. Therefore, for those who already understand Bitcoin, they are actually on the right track.
So just ignore it if we meet people who are negative towards Bitcoin.

[indo1]

i'm sure they don't understand about bitcoin, they just want to get a cheap bitcoin price, ultimately slander bitcoin, until eventually everyone will panic sell they will come in.

[Lorence.xD]

That's easy, think of it like an empty can, if you drop it, it will create more noise, it's like this people that think that they know a lot because they talk a lot when in reality, they are not knowledgeable, they are instead an ignorant that isn't open to new ideas.

[dothebeats]

Because it’s easier to say negative things in order to be on the safe side of things than to praise it without having enough knowledge to back up your claims. Even today, bitcoin is still viewed on a negative light, with the media still peddling the narrative that it’s the bad guys’ money of choice. As a laymen who know nothing about bitcoin, would you even try to say positive things on something that has been heavily advertised as bad? That’s kinda attracting drama and a lot of haters IMO.

This proves out that these fellas are only engaging into this market for the sake of money and doesnt intend to know on what it is all about and not even knowing with the basics and they just think off on how to make money
and once the market had gone through the opposite side of things then criticisms would really be coming next in line. They would only learn up things when they get wrekt for those people who are really serious with Bitcoin
engagement on where they do seek even more possible information that they can get but also there are still people who turned their back once they had experience unfortunate things like losing money
without even realizing on how this market truly works.Yeah its sad but this is indeed part of the reality that currently happening.

Business will destroy other businesses in order to dominate. This is to all those celebrities trying to bring Bitcoin down, though it's not even a business establishment.

Bleak market or the opposite, you can't convince others to learn everything about the Bitcoin, even the truth of it.

Keep being optimistic, mate.
However there will always be ignorant people sadly and even if you can pass down open mindedness and positive trait, there will always be the opposite.

Just put it like this.
In the market full of legitimate people, there will still be sliver portion of scammers.

[Streets 2.0]

I think the reason is simple: it is ignorance and total misunderstanding of the basic principles of the blockchain. When mankind in the bulk has dealt with this, more has already been done. Everyone who criticizes does it for their own reasons, most simply do not understand what they are talking about. In general, there is a well-known principle "Do you criticize? - Offer!" If, after criticism, there is no alternative that would be more attractive, then such people are simply ridiculous.
