Topic: Alex jones calls Bitcoin a "Bubble" & "Globalist NWO" Creation - page 3. (Read 10640 times)

Alex Jones is a gibbering idiot and it is no surprise he would say something this stupid. I don't think that clown has seen an event that isn't some bogus conspiracy. Whoever said it upthread was right. He doesn't like Bitcoin because he hasn't found a way to swindle people with it or sell it to the mouth-breathers who hang on his every word.

Logic 101 remedial course is now in session...
What does point #1 have to do with point #2? (Hint: nothing)
And what does either point have to do with what Alex Jones said in the video about Bitcoin being a ponzi bubble? (Hint: nothing)
Bitcoin is an open source project; the whole point is that no government can control it...
What does point #1 have to do with point #2? (Hint: nothing)
And what does either point have to do with what Alex Jones said in the video about Bitcoin being a ponzi bubble? (Hint: nothing)
To clarify for dolts who don't pass Logic 101, open source and the ability to fork does not guarantee the government can't control it.
And Alex Jones' thesis was not about the government controlling it or not. It was about the Bitards' emotional speculation and the Ponzi bubble. Whether the alleged Ponzi bubble is true or not, is irrelevant to the fact that Alex's thesis was not government control.
you're the illuminati! tell me who you work for, and what your boss' name is.. you can't take our liberty!
You are taking your own liberty by destroying yourselves in the Ponzi bubble.

Tangentially, the proof it is a ponzi bubble is at the following quoted post:
Gonzalo Lira explains why anonymity is so important but Bitcoin doesn't have it.
Data taken from http://blockchain.info/charts
In the past 60 days bitcoin market price has increased by 8000%. If the cause of increase was widespread adoption of bitcoin as a currency, people would be making transactions. The number of transactions would increase by a similar percentage taking it to around 300000 transactions per day. The current number of transactions is around 75000 per day.
My take from the data is that bitcoin is in a massive speculative bubble. People are hoarding and not using bitcoin as a currency.

The guy is a marketer, that's all.
Gold is a prime example.

The guy is a marketer, that's all. He spews out so much shit, of course he is going to be right some of the time (broken clock right twice a day). He won't promote Bitcoin because he hasn't figured out how to sell it to his viewers while taking a slice of the profits and he doesn't want the dimwits that listen to him to buy bitcoins instead of berkey water filters, survival seeds or whatever other shit he is pushing this week.

Alex Jones is also bat shit crazy. So, why is this a surprise?

If you want to restore your rationality, turn off all the noise and focus. Focus for example reading those who continuously speak or write in logic. For example most of my November posts.

Yes, it is clear that your dopamine receptors are stimulated by ranting on this board and your November work (from what I've skimmed) is ample evidence of this. I'm not saying that you are any different from most of the rest of us, but it would probably be healthy to take a break from it from time to time and/or explore other forms of expression.
My bandwidth is much higher than you realize. You are only see a small fraction of my time involved.
So, you break away to beat off from time to time?
Yeah.
Me to, but mostly when BTC is tanking.

Nobody of you whackjobs is NWO, you are experiencing cognitive dissonance.

AJ is from the NWO side. Tons of evidence. Look for it.

How the hell is bitcoin a global currency? You aren't forced to use it. 
December 03, 2013, 02:19:28 PM
I like how people who try to appear even more whacked out of their minds accuse him of working for "the enemy". It's really some pandemonium of paranoia, everybody in the conspiracy scene accuses everybody else to be part of THEM. At the worst conspiracy theorists engage in self censorship and taboos, all in all its a toxic mixture of delusion and hypocrisy.
And the very worst part it's very much like Bitcoin.

Right on Brother!
Seriously who cares what an insane person like Alex Jones thinks, it's like arguing back in the 2004 election (Bush vs Kerry) which candidate Osama-Bin-Laden wanted to win so voters could vote for the OTHER guy (cause obviously the other guy would be better!). You can not come to a correct conclusion by simply inverting the solution of a crazy person, that is not how logic works. Crazy or stupids peoples opinions are not the opposite of correct they are just MEANINGLESS.
Hmm you're right.
But still every time I see somebody on the forum call for the death of visa/paypal, put Bernake on an assassination market and I read things like "The dollar is crashing against bitcoin." it cranks me up. The only way for me to deal with that is making fun of em, that is what keeps me here and that's why I am still "supporting" Bitcoin in my own way.

Open source impplies forked development. (Hint: it doesn't matter if government or a cartel create their own fork, people using bitcoin will continue to use the original bitcoin)
And what does either point have to do with what Alex Jones said in the video about Bitcoin being a ponzi bubble? (Hint: nothing)
We both know that you know what a ponzi is, and that the definition requires some secretive fraudulent promises of a return on investment. Bitcoin has no secrets, no controling profiting party, and no promises of any returns by anyone in charge (Hint: there isn't even anyone in charge)

Alex Jones is a LIAR...
I'm amazed bitcointalk is even defending that guy.

i used to like alex.
but he has turned into a terrible liar.
the other day he said bitcoin just crashed - and he warned everyone...
meanwhile bitcoin was at $1200.
+1
I must admit i too used to respect and enjoy listening to Alex, he is actually pretty well informed about MANY things but at the same time he is so soooo wrong about MANY other things. He also had flat out LIED about couple of stuff, Bitcoin "crash" being one of them.
Every time i hear crap like this i lose interest, i find myself hardly ever checking his channel anymore. However he does have some excellent very intelligent guests on his show which is something i usually check out.
There is a lot of (some credible) info about him being an agent of this or that, but i dunno i think i'm just gonna be agnostic about it.

He has to force all the puzzle pieces into his horrific scenario outcome to keep his readers/viewers emotionally glued to their stacks, guns, and basements.
Nevertheless I think he has a point about the decadence of the society before a collapse, yet I don't know if I can fathom the "feral zombies on the loose" World War Z anarchy he is painting.
I can fathom the socialism turning against the free market folks and the millionaires.
