Recently, I was stumbled upon 99bitcoins.com & found these interesting Bitcoin Obituaries. It's in fact a record of how many times people forecasted the end of bitcoin and the official count is 432 up until now. There are thousands more which we have no record of but this has the record. The interesting part is that in the following graph you can get the source where someone has forecasted the death/end of bitcoin. It's pretty cool; I have read a few from long ago. There are some more interesting stats you may enjoy. Don't forget to have a click on the page.

I’m really surprised that the data shows that people still assumed that Bitcoin is dead even at the price of 60,000. If someone is going to be thinking that Bitcoin is dead at this point, then they must be really dumb to think so. Even after all that has happened over the years, some people are still having that kind of thought?

I thought that we have gotten over this years ago around 2015 when there were people who were saying that Bitcoin is coming to an end and then all of a sudden the price started booming. But all that still didn’t teach them a lesson and they still continued it till now, it’s really surprising that they would be doing that by now.

Journalists have sensationalized and have made money off of telling people that a certain asset has already died off or is already in the verge of extinction. They did this in the past, they will do it again. It's just up to the people to believe in their shenanigans or if they will do their own research and in that process allow themselves to be the masters of their decisions. Bitcoin will inevitably fall in price in the future, that's just how things go in the crypto world, but it dying? UNLIKELY.

Actually, before opening this thread I thought the title was mere hyperbolic; an exaggeration of some sort, but I guess it isn't. I'm not surprised nonetheless finding an obituary of Bitcoin for 2017 to be the highest of them all according to the site –2017 (124), for that was when the bubble FUD was at its peak. In fact, it was that experience of 2017 that formed my resolution that Bitcoin is truly a phoenix; a cat with nine lives. This day, I don't care about whatever negative opinion people have about Bitcoin because I know (from experience) that whatever happens Bitcoin will definitely recover and come out top.

A cat with 432 and counting lives you mean lol. If each dump bitcoin is considered dead then we'd already have mourned over our losses a couple hundreds of times already. But look at us, still kicking, still buying high and selling lol for the newbies lmao. It's all just up to the people who really see potential from the cryptocurrency industry and its affiliate sectors to stay because of its potential in the future or run away with their losses prevented or alleviated but missing out on future winnings.

Some changes while some don't. I can't remember the guy on twitter who was in breaking news for a while; have never changed. It's Peter or someone else. Most importantly, he was never ashamed of his shit speculation on bitcoin. There are people who don't want to lose in debate. They always try to defend their wrong statement even though they know they are wrong. Most of them belong to this type I believe.

Majority of these claims arises from the fact that they know very well that they will get the notoriety they are looking for and will get the media presence and some have earned a lot of money doing these silly things and some dare to continue to this day. Once there is a major market correction everyone starts popping up telling how the bubble broke and how their prediction was spot on Cheesy

.

The only option is to ignore and move on as there is no point in arguing with them.

I hear this often and also read it occasionally, the annoying thing is why people often predict the death of bitcoin when they themselves haven't tried and seen the technology in it, while it's very easy to access

I've also heard there are some people who predicted the death of bitcoin finally bought it and became a true holder now, people will not believe that nonsense anymore about the death of bitcoin and it will continue to live and even continue to grow

These are useless statements issued by the people who hate bitcoin and there are reasons for this hatered:

1) The no coiners who don't have any bitcoin and simply criticize others also

2) Those holding some shitcoins in their portfolio and the coin is not showing any growth signs but on the other side btc is growing and they think there shitcoin has much potential than btc and it could surpass it.

3) Those government puppets who cannot let freedom in hands of common people and fear btc could disturb the centralised monetary system by distributing the fund allocation in all hands rather than a central point.They are living in delusional world where fiat is powerful and bitcoin is used for criminal activities and those people will put their future at stake.

As you said bitcoin has been dead 432 times and you can see when prices will be at $200k then it would be 532 times or more as people will keep repeating same bullshit but bitcoin doesn't give a damn about them and will progress.The adoption curve is now increasing and see the prices are standing at $60k above beside all these obituaries and will continue the same growth.Bitcoin is freedom and people don't easily understand it's meaning.

NO TIME TO DIE.

there is a movie called 'no time to die' and the next time those people calling bitcoin gonna die, someone should film it and show them in their face.
even a lot pf government who blame bitcoin and really hate it in the past .. thesedays they prefer to follow it carefully and welcome it as time goes by .. and it become a huge power for bitcoin to remain exist and even more stronger to build its ecosystem , not just a temporary power.

Bitcoin is like "A hero in Mobile Legends with infinite Immortality" or
Bitcoin is like "A hero in Dota 2 with infinite Aegis of the Immortal" Cheesy

. If you are playing these 2 MOBA games then you know what I mean

After what happened in Bitcoin, I didn't expect that there will be some who will say that Bitcoin is dead or the like. This trend has been there since the start of my crypto journey in 2017 and until now after defying what these anti-Bitcoiners are saying, they are still saying the same thing Cheesy

.

Well, we have our own opinions though so let them say whatever they want to. In the end, they will realize that what they are saying are complete nonsense. A complete waste of time and after that, they will just join the train and buy some Bitcoins and remain silent Cheesy

People who said that bitcoin is dead are those with out knowledge in crypto or maybe they are investors of bitcoins before but unfortunately they lost all their investment. There are also people hate bitcoins because they don't have bitcoins and they saw other people investing in bitcoin already have a good life(ENVY). There are so many reasons why people said that bitcoin is dead, worthless or they just hated bitcoin because they think bitcoin is a scam. But they are all WRONG! It is really inevitable that there are people who are narrow -minded, negative -minded and unwilling to accept something that can change their lifestyle(BITCOIN).

Actually I think most of the ones who claim it after 2017 are the same people,,, or people trolling.

I think there is a lot of general ignorance here, because people should know the material they are writing about - and most just do copy/paste with translation, so if the news source is bad, all other news that has its base in such news is bad. Not so long ago, literally, all the media announced the killer of Bitcoin (FB Libra), and almost no one bothered to compare what Bitcoin is compared to FB coin - and even if that project succeeded then (and if it ever comes to life) it can't be Bitcoin killer.

There have always existed haters. But it is fixed only 432 rumors that BTC is dead. That's a remarkably small amount if to take to account all Bitcoin hodlers, traders and miners. Today's reality shows that a lot of us would rather die from Covid-19 or vaccine against Covid-19 then BTC will die. In fact it's enough only one working miner for BTC to live and it can be mined till 2140 year.

Each person is really totally different and its true that some of them are trying to fight out something which its clear that they are already on the wrong side but still thriving that they are right on what they had thinking

and even people had already see him look like negatively or something funny because of those things that he's trying to fight for but well its their own perception on things and we do have our own views which we should

really respect on but basing off with those current happenings on the market then you could really say that its totally opposite on some peoples mindset and beliefs.

Those naysayers did not researched well on Bitcoin they are just putting up their own myopic conclusion on something they did not actually explored and understood...and I think this is quite expected since Bitcoin is a type of a disruptor. Right now, there are some senators who are leaning to think that Bitcoin has no value at all and is just a medium for illicit activities and scammers, just like Senator Elizabeth Warren. I am not blaming these people because ignorance and stupidity run on all humans including those who got verifiable high educational status. Now, am sure that this is not the end of some people pronouncing Bitcoin to be dead considering that the asset is really volatile.

They did not forecast anything. They only see Bitcoin makes new all time highs and are jealous with Bitcoin hodlers. When price has big corrections, they are happy and try to laugh at Bitcoin investors "Bitcoin dies". Grin

If any investor let Bitcoin dies news affect decision, it is best if the investor leaves the market. Because weak hands can not survive in crypto market. In addition, being weak hands because don't spend time to read fundamentals and with knowledge, it is not belief but confidence that support investment decision.

All this seems even stranger if we know that Bitcoin is not something that was created a few months or 2-3 years ago, and such articles are constantly appearing.

Even those against Bitcoin do not believe it will die, hence why they fight against it so hard. And those who insist on believing Bitcoin is dead actually cannot change their minds ever. Simply because they are stuck in their own system (like fiat or gold or whatever).

That was the lousy act perpetrated by the Bitcoin haters, every time there will be an issue or even a simple market correction they are present shouting Bitcoin is dying! But no matter how many times they are going to do that, Bitcoin remains standing and stronger than ever before by achieving a new all-time high record and beating many speculations against Bitcoin. that's why my question is, Is that a sign of dying? that's crazy haters gonna hate let them feel the stress of being a hater. long live Bitcoin.

And has also revived 432 times? Kidding, it has never actually died imo, as long as at least maybe two-person actually use it, it would always be alive. It's a medium after all, even if a thousand haters show up, as long as it's core purpose remains and people still use it for what it's worth, haters would basically have no choice but to actually accept that Bitcoin isn't exactly dead, and their rants wouldn't do anything, at all. There are some of those probably, that have changed and have accepted Bitcoin for the better. Afterall, I'd reckon true haters would actually know the relevance of what Bitcoin is right now.

I am wondering, what is meant by the dead for Bitcoin in this case actually?
Dead mean dead, will there be another life after that died in a similar world?
Hemm or this is only an accuse or glance saying by someone who loves justifying about something?
Are they are professionals and do they really know about the Bitcoin chart?

I am personally never thought about this, what I am thinking is about Bitcoin right now and the possibilities about the future. We all cannot know or predict the future exactly. We may be dead before the Bitcoin is dead Grin

BUt we may also not know if Bitcoin will last forever
