Jim Rogers, a banker and another traditional investor, is calling Bitcoin a bubble. This is not new. But what keeps these people talking trash about Bitcoin? Definitely, these investors who own financial institutions, have their own agenda and are playing their cards.

In this article: http://dashplanet.blogspot.com/2017/11/whats-behind-about-bitcoin-bad-rumors.html, there's a good insight about the true reason why these people are spreading these rumors.
I did not look into your link, but in my own opinion, "bad rumors" against Bitcoin are being made simply because it's a strategy. Business tycoons have a way to manipulate the system in their favor. Rumors are advertised, holders will sell, price will fall, and those who made these rumors will actually be the ones buying all those Bitcoins. Simple, yet profitable...😉

I have no idea if they have a hidden agenda or if they just don't understand bitcoin. I kind of get it for banks, because it threatens their way of doing business, but let's face it. I don't really think that fiat will ever disappear because it's backed by a country, and it kind of shows their economic strength to the world, so as long there is fiat, banks will always have a place in our society, so bitcoin is not really a threat to them. It will force them to adjust their fees etc, but it won't threat their existence.

Bitcoin is becoming a financial asset now, so they can just use it like a normal asset, instead of fighting it. Banks can offer bitcoin investments, governments can charge their taxes, so nothing will have a dramatic change. In the end Bitcoin will "just" act as a safe haven for investors, because banks and governments can't screw it up, since it's decentralized, so everyone wins if they just stop fighting it. Maybe they will get it eventually.

Rumors about bitcoin is more nowadays and it will be even more when bitcoin's popularity and price grows more.These people have one of the two motives below.Either they may have got afraid with bitcoin's gigantic progress and so they make statements against bitcoin.Or else,they may have an idea of investing in bitcoins like jamie dimon and to make the price drop,they issue such statements.

talking trash
The only major case I've found of "talking trash" was Jamie Dimon.  All other statements that I've seen have been fairly reasonable.


He's already over that part and thinking about putting money into that futures market that's about to open. If you can't beat them join them.

When I watch something from the TV news or reading in the internet magazine I'm always think why are they saying it. What is their interest?

If you can't find the reason behind something it's usually money. They are either paid to do it or are trying to play the market by spreading fake news or bashing BTC.
It used to work in 2014 and 15, but since then the market got more mature and it's getting much more difficult.

I don't trust somebody until I check it by myself. And I don't think these particular rumors is worth a penny right now. It is still really strong bull trend in Bitcoin.

Seems, that they are trying the same coup as J P Morgan did. Dev warned people of Bitcoin bubble and we know the result.So, just let pass that fake predictions and statements. But they are not aware, that they spread out the possibility to invest to Bitcoin to people, who weren't involved yet.

They're spreading the FUD to manipulate the markets. And later bankers step into and surely make money. Jamie Dimon is a great example of how their system works. I hope Bitcoin community will stay vigilant and don't get on the hook.

My opinion, they make fun of him, not because they have a lot of money, but because they have someone leaking info knowing that soon this bubble that's going to happen:)

You should not be worried by this because it is always happening, specially on those days in when bitcoin is rising a lot, those kind of guys are always trying to throw shit over bitcoin to try to lower the price, but unfortunately, maybe 2 of 10 attempts to do so, are failing.
Maybe jamie dimon was the only one who was able to dump bitcoin for more than $500 in just a few hours (when it was below $5000 each bitcoin, so it is a lot)
But it is always going to be full of all this trash.

Another douche like Jamie from JPM shitting on crypto..............the establishment trying to beat down bitcoin and all crypto because of the freedom for financial Independence it offers citizens around the world. They are scared of it. Not to mention they have several million $ worth of bitcoin and buy more on the crashes he causes so one day he can be a whale and affect bitcoin that way one day in the future.

Think about it, a community can now produce its own wealth! But it is necessary that bitcoin remains successful as it is the base (trading crypto pair) of all crypto trading and therefor crypto wealth creation. If Jamie and co can ruin bitcoin's reputation he can bring down all cryptio to a certain extent. He is hoping to cause a self fulfilling prophecy to say something bad about something hoping to cause the thing he is predicting. Fuck him, he's a dick and mark my words as crytpo continues to free more and more citizens there will be more financial advisors putting shit on bitcoin in the future.
The CIA is trying to hack the blockchain to bring it down also, but it cant. Freedom to the people!! We will be slaves no more and they hate that!.

1) First of all you mentioned right point - a tratidional banker.  - Means he`s afraid to loose his money, fiat.

2) All things in the world (gold, platinum, USD, euros, etc etc etc) is only a matter of agreement between people. that means most important thing - IF we agree bitcoin value is 1 million that means 1 million. All value is all just about agreement. That`s it.

rumor is good for bitcoin.many big big person give  negative statement abt bitcoin bt also we can see big big leaders are supporting bitcoin too Smiley
so rumor doing promotion for bitcoin

The only rumour that is good are rumours about the acceptance of bitcoin pending the time when people will start seeing the fruit of such rumour. Negative statements as much as it brings promotion to bitcoin, it makes more people to further stay away especially if such statement is coming from a person in position of authority. Considering the fact that the mentality large number of people have about bitcoin is still wrong and primitive, only few of them can take the bold step of finding more information then make their conclusion while the remainder of the others rely on the opinions of people like the bankers in Op statement about confirming what their mind is telling them about bitcoin.

Bankers are known to be against bitcoin while those who are not vocal about are always sitting in the middle by not being for bitcoin, and not against bitcoin. The reason is because, anything that might displace you from your revered position whether now or later, you don't take it easy for that to happen.

Bitcoin is getting popular nowadays so expect for those bad rumors to come out. They are somehow trying to destroy its reputation to get it out of its position.

He's not alone and a lot of others have stated this same thing. Are they correct? Only time will tell. Regardless, BTC is here for the long term.

so rumor doing promotion for bitcoin
a terrible generalization at best. years ago, there were plenty of rumors on mainstream media saying that bitcoin was being used primarily by criminals, weather it be for ransom, illegal trades, and online drug markets. of course, they're not wrong, and these deals may have constituted the most traffic on the bitcoin network in terms of value (which i don't know if this is entirely true), but bitcoin was being used for so much more even then. however, even now we can see the effects rumors can have on bitcoin; when it was released that china was going to either ban ico's or the use of bitcoin entirely, we saw the price of bitcoin tank almost 25% in a 48 hour period. a long time ago, when bitcoin was still in the infant stages, any rumor might've helped for the sake of exposure, but it's a whole different story now. bitcoin is a real moving force in today's world, and it can be affected negatively just as the stock market can.

I often find myself at loggerheads with traditional stock market investors, many of them (not all) are against Bitcoin because people half their age are making higher ROI on Bitcoin and crypto than their entire portfolio's combined. One of my friends who has been trading on the stock market since the late 90's admitted that it drives him insane that he has spent his entire life studying the market, learning about how to spot market trends and buy signals and sell signals and all of the usual blah blah..and even with all his knowledge and skills he can't even come close to any of the ROI that his 23 year old son makes from Crytpo. As much as he is a very proud father and encourages his son. As a professional trader he finds it hard to believe that the one thing he is supposed to be good at is making money for his clients and he is no longer doing that the best way possible....The firm that he works for is part of the anti-crypto brigade so they are not allowed to suggest these investments to their clients. Yet he knows that there is nothing in his portfolio that can come close to crypto in terms of ROI...he actually finds himself at a point where he wants to resign because he can not honestly recommend investments to his clients knowing fully well that it's not the best way for them to make money...he himself has stopped investing his own money in the stock market and invests his money in Crypto with his son. Chances are he will be leaving the company soon and starting his own investment company with his son and taking some of his clients across... Smiley

He also says that at least his ego has not gotten the better of him and he can see that he needs to change direction... but most of his colleagues refuse to see the light. Their ego's wont allow them to accept that maybe times have changed and they need to adapt.

I read the article and almost everything written their is correct, although most of us are all aware as why bankers are really attacking bitcoin and why several nations are banning the whole cryptocurrency arena Everyone who bashes bitcoin have their own agenda behind.

Just like what Jamie Dimon did earlier, he ride the wave of the China FUD and added his own spin. Then later we found out that JP Morgan bought huge amount of bitcoin during the crash. Its gonna be a constant battle, but the more they attack bitcoin, the more it grows stronger.
