Oh well, I don't think this topic is really useful anymore as I think people have accepted that bitcoin will not die anytime soon.

The cited Forbes hit piece is dated today, so the topic is as relevant as ever imho.

The obit site itself seems to be reasonably current, with fresh propaganda "death of BTC" posts from February of 2017: https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoinobituaries/
It shows the ever-climbing price of BTC at the time of each obit, btw.

Is there a current thread on here to report these?

I just saw this one today:

"I would love nothing more than for bitcoin to succeed, but I believe it will die a slow and painful death and something else will come along to be its successor."

https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbestechcouncil/2017/04/20/the-rise-and-fall-of-bitcoin-and-the-new-kid-on-the-blockchain/#5f350ea064e8

Good job of necroing the thread as this has stopped since 2015 which is frigging 2 years ago since the last post. You should have just posted a new topic for this.

Thank you for this! It would be a nice counter argument when people say they don't believe in bitcoin. Cheesy

That's my goal with the site! Send it to your friends when they say Bitcoin is dead or not working. Tell them to scroll to the bottom of the site and take a close look at the date of the links!

Will do.

Good job man! Why not put more ads on the site so you can earn a little? You deserve it. Cheesy

The media hates Bitcoin...so let's have fun with it and keep track of their obituaries while the price has, generally, continued to rise.

http://bitcoinobituaries.com/

I'll send a tip to anyone who posts another article which claims Bitcoin is dead!

This one is great in my opinion...
