But can you tell me why you care about this and what we would gain if bitcoin critics publicly apologized?
This world is colorful, everyone has different personalities, interests and tastes...we shouldn't expect everyone to be like us. Furthermore, our purpose in entering the market is to profit and get rich, not to argue and prove right and wrong. So in my opinion, we should ignore and avoid contact with people who do not think the same way as us. As investors, we should focus on accumulating bitcoins because that is how we make profits. Also, we can't know what their real purpose is in criticizing bitcoin, do they really hate it or are they just trying to find a way to keep people away from it but still secretly buy it?
Topic: Does Bitcoin critics remain critics forever? - page 3. (Read 349 times)
There are different kinds of Bitcoin critics. There are those who will eventually bend a knee. There are also those who won't. Those who won't could be classified further.
For example, Schiff and Taleb's arguments aren't the same. I haven't heard all of their arguments against Bitcoin, but it seems Taleb's arguments are more on the fundamentals. He doesn't even give much value to Bitcoin's price. Bitcoin hitting $100,000 or even a million doesn't matter to him. Bitcoin remains essentially that technology that doesn't have much worth regardless of its fiat value. I think this kind of critic, one who doesn't mind the price, won't turn into a convert.

Can we say that those who think that bitcoin price will get to zero still believe till now that it will happen even after seeing that bitcoin is soaring at six figures?
They can have their reasons to think that Bitcoin will fall to zero, with Bitcoin price at $10, $100, $1000, $10000 or even $100,000 or even higher, but what can we do with them?Nothing. They have their brains and there are enough free resources to learn about Bitcoin, they are free to absorb these resources or ignore them. If now, they still believe that "Bitcoin will fall to zero" or they will still believe it in future, we only can let them be. We can not change these people who are obsessive with their wrong thinking.
They can change their critics from "Bitcoin will fall to zero" to "Bitcoin will fall to $1,000 or $100" when price is about $500,000 or $1M.
My concern is that I have not seen some of the vocal fud spreaders coming out public to apologize or at least express their change of mind after they might have seen that bitcoin is never what they thought. So, does it mean these critics never ever changes their mind? Can we say that those who think that bitcoin price will get to zero still believe till now that it will happen even after seeing that bitcoin is soaring at six figures?
We are seeing an open acceptance instead of a public apology. We have seen these repentant critics openly buying or speaking good about Bitcoin. An example is Michael Saylor and Donald Trump. Other like Financial Times still believe that the price will still get to zero. They might wait for eternity.https://www.forbes.com/sites/julianhayesii/2024/10/14/trillion-dollar-pivot-what-michael-saylors-bitcoin-bet-teaches-ceos/

Does their "apology" mean anything?
To me no.
Reason behind this is that FUD is so common in crypto and was so in this forum too like 7-8 years back, that buying bitcoin at that time would seem like a mental challenge you have overcome.
In the background, people like them could cause the market to collapse and buy at discounts leaving smaller fries empty handed. You might call the small fries stupid, but this was very prevalent then and not every person is sound enough to make all these decisions on their own with an asset class that literally no one actually understands how to use.
So let them remain critics, who cares? We buy bitcoin when the price drops, that is it.

Critics? No.
FUDsters? Yes.
Majority of those who may look like simple "critics" of Bitcoin, are not critics at all. They are corrupt people who saw their own thing threatened and decided to spread some FUD about bitcoin. They will not change, ever. Like the CEO of one of the most corrupt banking cartel named JP Morgan who called Bitcoin "fraud" while one of their companies was buying bitcoin during the crash at the time.
You are right, critics are different from FUDsters like you put them and I think the later are deliberately being obtuse which is the reason they will never stop or change their stance. They know what they are doing just like you rightly said so they will continue being unfortunate rather than come out public with a change of opinion. FUDsters? Yes.

We have seen several instances of people criticizing bitcoin publicly with some saying it was never to be trusted and others saying it was going to zero. The list of these people is long with Nassim Taleb the "black swan" man and Janet Yellen as two of the notable critics. For those that want to know some of them and what they have said about bitcoin, Red Bull website gave a short list of some of them.

Please if you know anywhere these critics tender public apology or at least express a change of opinion, kindly point me to such material.
Why they would be needing to apologize? They havent done something wrong. We are having that a speculative market on which its normal that there would really be those people who do speculate whether negative or positive. Therefore, they havent done something for them to apologize for. Pretty sure that they are now murmuring into themselves about on the missed opportunity on acquiring or getting some cheap coins wayback with that bear market. For sure there would really be those who had changed up their view or impressions towards Bitcoin specially now that it do able to hit up 6 figures on which they've been criticizing about on having that inability could reach up these value or price. As of this moment on which trying out to look around or in the market then we can hardly see to those who do say negative towards Bitcoin on which everything seem fine eh? This is really that a normal sentiment that we can look around on the time that we are heading for the bull run period on which we do know that we are really that going there.

I think No in general, because take Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan, for example. Back in 2017, he was extremely skeptical about Bitcoin and even threatened to fire employees if he found out they were trading it. But look at JPMorgan now...
Cryptocurrency Market News: JPMorgan, Wells Fargo Report Holding Spot Bitcoin ETFs
Some critics might stay that way, but many big-time investors who were once skeptical have already jumped on the Bitcoin bandwagon.
Even notable figures like Michael Saylor and Elon Musk were once critics of Bitcoin before they fully embraced it. It just shows how perspectives can change over time.

Some of them will rather die in shame than to swallow their pride. Instead of publicly apologizing, they prefer to secretly invest in Bitcoin. Some of these blind die-hard critics include Warren Buffett, Jamie Dimon and Peter Schiff. FUDsters? Yes.

There is nothing like this.
Opinions can change whether it is about earth being round or bitcoin being bad for us.
