Now that they can write news about blockchain, they just try to undermine bitcoin lol.

We can take heart that at least they are not portraying Bitcoin as a currency used only by criminals.
In fact, they don't want to use the word 'blockchain' in most articles. They just say Distributed Ledger Technology.  Tongue
Yeah i am seeing that. Their knowledge is so limited that they don't even know that they are same!

As we know the industry, we know what is true in spite what ever is written. This makes me wonder to what extent the news of other industry on media is true.

There's more to Blockchain than just Bitcoin buzz

In May 2008, someone using the nom de guerre of Satoshi Nakamoto published an innocuous paper titled "Bitcoin: A peer-topeer electronic cash system". Every couple of years or so, someone discovers or claims to be 'the' Satoshi. Almost as mysterious as Satoshi was his creation, Bitcoin. Hailed as the first truly digital currency , which did not require a central mint or bank, and which could cross borders and wallets instantly, Bitcoin got a bad name when the 'dark Net' populated by drug and weapons dealers discovered its many uses.

The conversation today is not about Bitcoin though; it is about the underlying technology which powers Bitcoin, called the Blockchain. Experts have opined that by 2025, 20% of the worlds' GDP will rest on Blockchain based applications! Every bank and financial institution worth its salt
