Poorly written article and the first clue is associating all of BTC with one political ideology.

I would thrash him in a debate yet I am pretty sure that he makes more money than me...so who is the real winner here.

For the life of me, I have no idea how anyone could call BTC a ponzi if they have spent even two hours researching the topic.  At worst, he could have posted a question to /r/bitcoin and been ridiculed twenty times before someone corrected such a notion with a serious face...

The Washington Post was purchased by Jeff Bezos... he didn't care that it was bleeding money... he wanted to use it to promote his own political agenda.

Mainstream media write what will make people read their articles/newspapers. I remember when the articles about ISIS and Ebola appeared that was the only thing I was reading on /r/worldnews, then it died down.

They don't care what happens in the world, so long as they can build up "interest".

What Ponzi? Bitcoin never promised a High return on an investment, which is what exactly a Ponzi offers, people who got in for the concept don't care about the price.

Anyways, it's nice to at the time like this people show their true colors, easy to differentiate now from the ones who really like Bitcoin and ones who pretended to.

The Washington Post is a couple of notches up from the Star and the Enquirer.

Surely you have better things to do
with your time than make hundreds
of posts conversing with fools.

A negatively spun article published about Bitcoin during a price crash...

Big surprise there.



Exactly.  It should be obvious by now that the mainstream media really doesn't want bitcoin to succeed.  They've been trashing it for years while they pretend it's too complicated to explain to people.  Imagine instead of laughing at it initially, they told people to pick some up when they were first reporting on it, at $5/btc?

you are 1 MIL altogether since 6 years ago. You have a lot of visibility in media, a lot of buzz. someone paid a lot of money for this advertising Smiley

AGAIN, 1 Milion users worldwide(including China), Ok? Smiley

Bitcoin, in other words, is suffering a deleveraging shock like the one that our economy in 2008, but without a Federal Reserve to cushion the blow.
