Once new innovation comes out, ppl can like or dislike it and have their own valid reasons. Never mind time will tell everything.
How, you would be calling the naysayers are having the valid reason, they do not have such high value to validate the Bitcoin which made the real revolution in this digital world, there are lot of people who gave the hard effort at day and night times to give innovative things to the people around the world.

This article points out lots of negative in bitcoins. I really don't like this article. The title itself already tell it's content. Bitcoin isn't just a scam. I'm sure after many years the author will knee and ask himself "Why did I write this?" Bitcoin gives hope for others.

A Great Time to Start Something!
At first they say that everything is bad and a scam.

First light = bad, first car = bad, internet = bad

in 5 years Matt O'Brien will change his opinion, and he will cry later, to not jump on this revolution.

Very good point. It's either "scam" or "toy." Either "too good to be true" or "why would anyone in Realville use this?" Same old song...

Negative media doesn't matter nearly as much as the occasional positive stories about BTC:
The Flat Earth Society will reject Bitcoin, but a large group of wise investors will seek refuge from the tyranny of fiat money.

gandhi quote would come in hand here, it is what they are exactly doing

bitcoin will win in the end, no matter how much they hate it or they want it to not succeed

This. There's also a ton of FUD in the general public about bitcoin in general. The media does a fantastic job portraying it as "illegal ponzi currency"

"anyone read this article: The scam called Bitcoin?"

No, but I did read a blog post some time ago that might as well have been entitled "The scam called Nxt." Had the author of it not self-disclosed his identity, I would have been tempted to comment: "Is that you, Mr. Schiff?"

But I do have to say that reading that particular dithyramb did reinforce the point that we're all in this together. With that noted, I'll head back to the altcoin ghetto.

Sounds like a clickbait article for ad money. Everyone's paying attention to bitcoin now, so it's not surprising.

Sometimes it's hard to tell whether Bitcoin is more like Ponzi scheme or a pyramid scheme.

Whatever it is, though, it isn't a currency. It's a tech stock. Each Bitcoin is really a share in a system that seems to make it cheaper to transfer things online - money, stocks, bonds, even the deed to your house - by cutting out the middleman. Well, kind of. Bitcoin doesn't remove the middleman so much as replace him with middlemen who don't make you pay much, but make society as a whole do so instead. Is this progress?

[...]

And the final conclusion is "The future might not belong to Bitcoin, but it should to its technology."

Finally a post I agree too, not entirely, but partly. I've huge respect and appreciation for Block chain, and not bitcoin in itself. I'm a staunch support of Etherium too, love the idea. Block chain is the future in my opinion, and from where I see it, it's bright and shiny.

It's cool because he shows he has no idea about this and it's cool to see ignorant people talking about things they don't know

the thing is to keep bitcoin alive on news even with bad or good news to it the thing is to show to the world that bitcoin keeps here and can wait for them as internet made on the last years ....
