Bitcoin has died 474 times

[retreat]

How many times do people want to say that Bitcoin will die, but until now it has not been proven and the adopters of Bitcoin are actually getting higher even though many people are skeptical and even the government is banning it. It demonstrates the power of Bitcoin and shows how if people band together and share their vision for a decentralized transaction system that is anonymous, fast, inexpensive and intervention free, it will be quite difficult to stop this movement.

The future of Bitcoin is bright.  Bitcoin will improve as time goes by.  Bitcoin is not dead but it has the potential to get better.Bitcoin will improve the future of mankind.  If someone reserves some bitcoins now, he will get good pofid after few days.

This opinion have many of us, but the state are more powerful currently. People can not or do not want to fight with the state, so the fear is great. And they read in the media a lot about fraud or illegal use of Bitcoin. This fight can go on for a long time, I hope many understand what possibilities we have with Bitcoin.

I will not be surprised to see that at the time, there are people that still hate Bitcoin even after do many fortunes Bitcoin had created for people. There had been so many hate speeches against Bitcoin including the ones from billionaires that are supposed to compose themselves and keep there own opinions to themselves. The existence of Bitcoin does not depend on anybody so those that want Bitcoin to fall will be surprised to see that Bitcoin will keep going bullish and there agitation will make Bitcoin to become more popular everyday.

Its my first time seeing a platform that has a compilation of related things saying that Bitcoin is dead; many people always say this at some points because they are bitter in their investments that they made a wrong entry most likely the reason and also the price of the bitcoin does not make too much action unlike before the bull run always there's a price movement that they can make a short trades, and now we see the bitcoin just sitting around with the 29-31k USD and keep sleeping but if you will check for the long term run its the run for the accumulation of coins.

That's another great example why we shouldn't listen to what so called "experts" predict in the future to happen. Most of the predictions I heard in the past never actually happened or where completely different in the magnitude they should have occurred. In politics this phenomenon is quite common, predictions for future growth is usually overstated, giving the politicians more freedom to spend money today. In financial services I saw the same that the predictions of future earnings are usually too optimistic because the analyst are getting benefits from the companies they cover. We should learn from that, bitcoin is not going to die even if another 500 experts say so. As long as there are investors and consumers that use bitcoin in their everyday life's nothing is going to change. It's fine if some people are against crypto currencies, but no reason to bash them publicly and try to convince others to do the same.

Its high time we debunk these so-called "experts." They believe they have grasped the complex mathematical formulas underlying existence and potential futures. Ridiculous. These charlatans repeatedly demonstrate their lack of realism with their fake degrees and elitist titles.

Their financial and political errors of judgment? A blatant example of their intrinsic capacity to deceive large populations. Maybe its done on purpose. Or perhaps they are simply that illiterate. The future?

They all need a kick in the face, and Bitcoin's persistence is it. It is erect and mocks their fruitless prognostications. Its durability is dependent on actual people using it in their daily lives, not on their meaningless rhetoric. So I say to the doubters, keep on barking! Whether or not you approve, the crypto caravan continues.

I really don't understand how (or why) people keep saying that bitcoin is dead. In the first years it could have made some sense, there was a lot of uncertainty about the whole project and it could have actually failed but now, I mean, it's been 10 years, even big funds invested in bitcoin, how can it die? It doesn't make any sense.

Recently, I was stumbled upon 99bitcoins.com & found these interesting Bitcoin Obituaries. It's in fact a record of how many times people forecasted the end of bitcoin and the official count is 432 474 up until now. There are thousands more which we have no record of but this has the record. The interesting part is that in the following graph you can get the source where someone has forecasted the death/end of bitcoin. It's pretty cool; I have read a few from long ago. There are some more interesting stats you may enjoy. Don't forget to have a click on the page.

These things are very common. This is a crypto forum and users here are predicting death of bitcoin. If you go to a internet marketing forum, users there will be predict end of blogging and online money making. There are some people who like to make fun of other people. You should completely avoid such people if you want to succeed in any work. There is enough potential in all niches at all time. Furthermore, if you reach the top 1% cream in a niche, you will be making a hell lot of money even when it has got saturated.

Yes I agree, just reading the obituaries from "2023" its like - come on these people negatively
commenting on Bitcoin just dont get it -or- they are only grabbing some attention but their
statements will be forever remembered for the inaccuracy and foolishness of the author!

This is an entertaining line, I think he attacks Crypto but includes Bitcoin.

Crypto is the misbegotten offspring of the US technology boom, but at least that brought real
world progress.

Oops looks very much like Harvey Jones is trying to make a name for himself and wants to
desperately cling onto his FIAT system.

You know this concept of bitcoin and its death isn't news anymore and frankly, I don't buy it, because down the line you get to see these same folks call back what statements they've made about it. So, you mean to say that an asset class with over a trillion market capitalisation is worthless and will grind to a hault just because you don't believe in it, its just like saying every other investor or holder of bitcoin is stupid.

If their opinion of bitcoin being dead is what we currently see then we are cool with it. Definitely, death means being alive for bitcoin.

In my opinion, all observers are allowed to state their opinion, and no one can forbid it. It's just a matter of whether to believe the news that is being said or not, because sometimes the news that is being said can be true or possibly wrong. But maybe I will also agree with you that if indeed it can be trusted, why are there still so many people who are holding and trading bitcoin? You can be sure that the investors really believe that it will not happen as imagined.There is nothing wrong with us continuing to wait for information that maybe there will be further news; usually news like this will be consumed by many people and receive many responses from observers.

After I clicked on the original source of the news you raised, I smiled a little at the facts that were there. Bitcoin has died 474 times, in fact until now Bitcoin is still alive and growing, Bitcoin adoption is even faster. haters who are against the presence of Bitcoin will continue to leave their mark by spreading scary news for people who are new to Bitcoin, but these negative issues will not work for investors who have been struggling in Bitcoin investment for a long time. Haters trying to do this all have personal interests behind it, they are very passionate about creating various negative issues when the price is corrected, but they never praise Bitcoin's performance when it reaches a new ATH.

You are very right , there are two different categories of people in this I believe..
First are those who actually love Bitcoin , and would love to invest in Bitcoin but want to do so while Bitcoin is at a very cheap rate, they device or come up with some of these negative stuffs like "Bitcoin is dead" as a way for them to try to bring the price of Bitcoin down to the barest minimum so they can buy ..

The Second people in this category are those who naturally hate Bitcoin, and possibly see it as a threat to them or their business, most people in this category are the government agencies, or those working in the government, politicians, bankers and so on , they device several means to try to change peoples mind about Bitcoin , but from the records , they have never succeeded, and neither will they ever succeed.
