I no longer think bitcoin needs my help dispelling rumor and myth. Let them talk all they want, you and are going out partying. With bitcoin of course.
We waste too much time trying to dispel rumours and teach the newbies.

You mean the same media companies that are owned by the central bankers aren't going out of their way to praise their competitor who is based on directly undermining their profitable brand of corruption?

You don't say...

If we look for negativity, we will find negativity. If we look for positivity, we will find positivity.

Are we to believe the money trust, robber barons and money changers care that much about little ole you and me and our finances??

You are being mind fucked.
This person speaks like a sage, and burns brightly with the light of truth.

Make no mistake, this is an information war. A war for hearts and minds. The oligarchs who depend on mass-deception are fighting desperately for their survival.

i heard the information war is over and the guys with the bongs won  Shocked

...or they created BTC and we are helping them spread it globally?
BTC might end up helping both tyrants and libertarians......stay tuned for more.

The mainstream media monologue has slowly been evolving from prattle about drugs, guns, human trafficking, Satanic ritual infant sacrifice, etc., toward prattle about sophomoric monetary theories (Bitcoin will never be a currency, apparently despite it already functioning as one), Bitcoin 2.0 vaporwave hype (hey guys, we just learned about Bitcoin 5 minutes ago, guess what, there's stuff that's gonna replace it you dumb nerds), and general FUD about things governments supposedly are thinking about doing and/or misrepresenting what they've actually done.

I'd call that progress, because the low-hanging fruit of OMGDRUGSBLACKSAREGOINGTORAPEYOURDAUGHTERS is severely diminished.

I'm not worried about any of this negative stuff, as none of it changes the fundamentals....

Yes, once you've been through one or two "full cycles", then the negative news has less impact.
BTC is a long-term adventure and there will be many ups and downs.

I don't know about non-stop negativity.  It's been a shit month or so and, as others have pointed out, somewhat deservedly so, but it's not all bad news. 

I think this is a phase that is passing.  We see it passing with the VC pouring into it by the millions.  New infrastructure is being built out at an amazing pace which will be better equipped to handle real world use/adoption than the systems that have failed in the recent past that has led to this negative news cycle.

I'm not worried about any of this negative stuff, as none of it changes the fundamentals.  what is happening behind the scenes has me thinking BTC is getting more solid by the day.  Very little doubt in my mind at this point.....

I'm reading an Economist.com article on Bitcoin.

Their first argument against Bitcoin is that its appreciative properties interfere with wage slavery. -- Free the slaves!

The second argument is that the money supply can be cut off when exchanges like empty gox go belly-up. -- Bitcoin is money.

The third argument while not exactly coherent I believe is that Bitcoins can't just be printed to meet demand. -- This is how patterned toilet paper is made!

They don't seem to make any valid points IMO.
