Topic: 2013-11-22 Reuters: Money managers and the fog of bitcoin (Read 1107 times)
I find it the other way round, most people always has a opinion one way or the other even if they have no clue so much respect to these guys for addmitting they do not know. I often find hedge fund guys pretty open minded so would not be surprised if some of them join team Bitcoin in not too long.
Well that's the interesting thing, I've found most people are like those 4 guys and just say they don't know anything about it which is admirable. The 1 guy who just makes up an opinion on the spot is unfortunately part of a small minority who are jumping to get their opinions heard and trash a new technology.
It's really annoying when you come across people like this yes but just remember they're probably the same people who are convinced violent video games, metal and the internet corrupt children.

i kinda like these guys... they are at least modest and admit ignorance when they are asked about something
where they aren´t equipped with the necessary knowledge.
many other guys would have just talked to the media without knowing anything about bitcoin and it´s nature

It is scary how much money they manage...
even scarier how little that money is sensibly valued IMO

Lol, so-called "technical experts" demonstrating exactly how narrow the range of their expertise actually is.
Do you understand "reserve currency hyper inflation accompanied with simultaneous cryptocurrency appreciation and usage, on the inverse trendline"? You will get the chance to sample it in real time. Real soon.

Good news: price still has a long way to go, majority of world's big money is nowhere near on board this train.
