So I'm unable to watch the video right now, I'll get that confession out there.

Is Alex Jones supportive of Bitcoin? Or is he just announcing he'll accept it as payment?

Those are two different distinctions - Anyone who's in the business of making money should be accepting Bitcoin. It's so easy to accept payment and store it or convert as you deem necessary. If he's actually becoming a supporter of Bitcoin I'd be very interested to hear his comments and his take on it all.




He seems on the fence about it fully, but he said he supports it because it's an alternative way to corrupt fiat and likes it because of the freedom and frees choice aspect of it, but doesn't believe in it fully enough to put much of his own money into it. I'm sure he'll come around fully eventually.

if i remember correctly (read this yesterday), he has a coinbase account and is accepting BTC, but it's turning into fiat/cash right away. so you can send him money via bitcoin, but it turns up in cash. make of it what you will.

so that means more transaction volume. and you cant be certain he isnt buying some things in btc or paying som eother people in btc, unless he stated that 100% of it gets converted to fiat EVERYTIME. i really doubt he would do that, even most people/businesses dont do that. most people like to hold a little bit just to have some fun and try to be a hipster.

That's right Alex.

Get the fuck out of my beautiful forum, you fat, inbred trailer park trash know-nothing.

Get the fuck out of here before your pigshit reputation sullies the good name of bitcoin.

I just love it when people sling mud at anybody who may even somewhat agree with something the man has to say is immediately called out as a conspiracy theorists.  While the same same mud/fud slingers claim he is CIA with no proof.  It's truly amazing watching these people try and rationalize their insane claims while putting others down at the same time.

Not directed at anybody just a observation really.

I am not claiming he is CIA. But I am slinging mud at him because he deserves it. He perpetuates a culture of willful ignorance and mental weakness. He has placed his ego as being more important than the proper education of his fans. This is undeniable given his incredibly poor track record of his predictions. If he truly cared about people, he'd stop filling their heads with certifiably false garbage for profit.

Again, if you ignore the FACT that Alex Jones is documented as being WRONG or a LIAR literally hundreds of times, its simply because your ego is too fragile to accept the totality of the situation. You're just a weak person too afraid to admit that your hero and savior might be just another cheesy, self-centered charlatan.

BTW, you can't sling FUD at one of THE biggest FUD-slingers of all-time. That's what he does for a living: FUD. Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt = the initials of Alex Jones.

I don't like how "pro-BTC" sounds.
It gives the impression that people are divided into pro-btc and anti-btc groups that are constantly in fight with each other...
Btc is just a technology. It either suits you or it doesn't. I mean is pro-internet a thing?

Certain interest groups stand to gain or lose money based on the success or failure of BTC, so those are the people doing the majority of the fighting. For me "pro-BTC" has libertarian connotations (for better or for worse) whereas "anti-BTC" has connotations of ignorance and the old guard protecting itself.

Last time I heard Jones thought bitcoin was part of the Illuminati.

man, i would love for someone to troll him and start calling him an illuminati conspirator. just put a tinfoil hat on and argue with him without letting him speak. keep on repeating "are you with the illuminati, why are you helping bitcoin?"

This is one of those posts where I know i shouldnt look, but I do, and its like:

 

Lets keep controversial subjects away from bitcoin publically IMHO

Even if these conspiracies are true, they scare away people who just want to see what bitcoins about

A good starting point for your own investigation, this video touches on a few of the MANY pieces to look in to:

Also this more recent press conference, where congressmen basically say the media has been lying to us (big surprise) about the truth of that day:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ItE28oeMnas

I'd encourage you to find the whole press conference, as there are others speaking about these secret documents.

^ Thank you for that.

If you think that building fell from "debris hitting it" then you truly are brainwashed.  There now you can say that I've used that term.  Maybe you did have too much fluoride as a kid.
