Topic: Greed - the driving factor behind 'bitcoin is dead' - page 2. (Read 1027 times)
Another theory crossed my mind and it's very simple. What if some people want the bitcoin price to fall so they can buy using anonymous backdoors and up the price again after that... the media can be plaid to reach their goal.
All the articles about bitcoin being dead, unsustainable, doomed to failure, etc. have one driving factor behind them.
Greed.
At least in my opinion.
These people want bitcoin to fail precisely because they know it can work, but weren't invested in it in the beginning.
They want bitcoin to fail because they know it can work, and they want it to be replaced by something where they can invest in the beginning, and see explosive growth in value.
There will be alternative crypto-currencies that are successful, I don't think any of the current alt-coins are it but it will happen.
But as long as bitcoin remains around and dominant - none of them will ever see the kind of growth explosion bitcoin saw, and bitcoin will never see that kind of growth explosion again either.
I believe many if not most of these nay-sayers want bitcoin to fail because they realize this, they realize they missed the opportunity to make millions just sitting on their fat asses, and that opportunity will only come again if bitcoin does fail. Thus conscious or not, they write these articles hoping to influence a crash in bitcoin.
That's my opinion.
