Topic: According to TechCrunch - We FAIL (Read 1645 times)
They didn't say bitcoin failed, they just said bitcoin got shot in the pancreas, it happens.
So much fail
Even most of their other cases are full of BS.
Calling Bitcoin a business = FAIL
LOL... not only did bitcoin NOT fail in 2011, it was a better investment than anything else on the planet - up over 1,400% for the year.
Hopefully we'll fail again this year!

well at least they've mentioned in the slideshow that Bitcoin is recovering in 2012 =)

I blame them anyway! 
Ugh, so ugly I couldn't even get to the Bitcoin part. This is NOT a threat, whatsoever.
They list one of the businesses as a success in 2010 and a failure in 2011 - random

Also FAIL: Their website.
Noscript would have to allow 17 different addresses for the whole page to load.
While on the page I got the first clickjacking attempt I have seen in months as reported by noscript.

Clearly they do not understand what bitcoin is. They must have thought it was a stock or something and that the price dropping meant the business was failing. It's kind of funny really.
Just because it went from $9 to $30 and came down afterwards this is a failure? How about the fact we are almost back at the value 8 days before the peak again which is impressive. Not to mention the fact it is up a significant percentage year over year right now. I like how they also did not show any of the parabolic recovery we have had for the last several weeks on their chart.

This is pretty priceless, Bitcoin shows what, like a 1500% increase in value from the beginning of 2011 to the end, and we get classified as a failed business model in 2011. Nice!
