You think that's crazy, some people actually like Barbra Streisand's music.

Or they're used up old fools milking the last dollar out of their previous successes. Kind of like Cher.
Oooh, burn.... poor Cher, I still regard her as kind of "with it" since she pioneered use of autotune. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Believe_%28Cher_song%29
However, I guess even that was a long time ago now.
I used to like Cher and The Washington Post. Now they're both just kind of embarrassing.

The bottom line is Amazon is afraid of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin revealed: a Ponzi scheme for redistributing wealth from one libertarian to another
If Bitcoin were a currency, it'd be the worst-performing one in the world, worse even than the Russian ruble.
But Bitcoin isn't a currency. It's a Ponzi scheme for redistributing wealth from one libertarian to another. At least that's all it is right now. One day it could be more. Venture capitalists, for their part, are quick to point out that it's really a protocol, like the early internet, and its underlying technology could still be revolutionary. Also, they've bet hundreds of millions of dollars on it.
But that's not much of a consolation to anyone who bought anywhere near Bitcoin's $1,100 top. Or near $1,000, or $900, or $800, or, well even yesterday's prices. That's because Bitcoin hasn't just fallen 76 percent the past year. It's fallen 36 percent the past two days, as you can see below, with a 24 percent decline the past 24 hours. It's too bad Bitcoin doesn't have a central bank to help stabilize its value.

Bitcoin is a state of mine. If you want to negative that's you choice.

As in "We can't even get our head round the end of dead tree publishing, and now money is on electronic calculating engines? Excuse us while we chortle into our single malt at the carriage club."
The Washington Post just fails to respect the authoritah of Lemmiwinks.

I think the article says more about the end of the Washington Post than it does about anything else.

more articles like this will appear in the next period of time and corroborate with some ongoing investigations over US exchangers will conclude to the Bitcoin death.
mark my words, Bitpay will be closed very soon.

Another journalist on crack
They seem to crawl out, when the currency goes down... and base their articles on what they read in other media.
Most of these people have not even read the Bitcoin white paper and have no clue how disruptive this technology will be.
Why would a company like Dell or Microsoft even look at it, if they thought it might be a ponzi scheme.
Someone must pay for these people to go into rehab, and then when their minds are clear, research the real value of the technology.
