I think everyone in Bitcoinland suffers from Stockholm syndrome. The article isn't that bad or incredibly incorrect

Seeing as how the price bumped right up I don't think there is any need for such news that try to manipulate the price. I know what they're trying to do but it won't work.

The media just made the article more interesting, and catchy...its just an elaboration of what mike hearn's statements which I think mike hearn really has a point there and I think those things that he said must be addressed seriously..  But we must be glad right now that the news didn't result to a serious problem and just give bitcoin's price a dip..

Well they must kill it at least once every month, so that's for January, I think it has died once this month too.

Next obituary scheduled for March.


They giving free advertisement to Bitcoin as well so I appreciate even such articles - only when media stop mentioning Bitcoin, this is when I get worried whats happening with Bitcoin...

Excactly!  Even bad press is good press.  Washington post can revisit this if they like.

Hehe, meanwhile Bitcoin is doing nothing but go higher and the software does nothing but getting better with 0.12 around the corner. I wonder how much of an idiot all those guys that follwed Mike Hearn's disgusting FUD are feeling right now, serves them well. Once again, they were all wrong and will be remembered as morons.


Exactly! Best way of finding out how serious a newspaper working is reading about something which you already know and involved a lot. Simply full of b...sh*t. It tells me to question more everything i read on Washington Post.

What a hilarious comment. I don't know of Bitcoin ever dying. It is still thriving pretty well. The price keeps increasing and decreasing but it can still be used as a currency without the increase and decrease.

I see this is an article published in the midst of the blocksize debate. Well, what do we see now, bitcoin is already on the way back to it's value way before the debate issue. While it still isn't fully resolved, I'm pretty sure soon it's gonna be in everyone's backs to move on.

Human nature is just naturally pessimistic. You will get more views writing about the 'failure' of bitcoin than its small successes.

This. alot of people want bitcoin to fail not only big banks , people that did not get involved with btc to begin with and now spend their time bashing it hopeing it fail. just asking around my friend circle i can see most people have a negative view of btc. they have never even tryed bitcoins have never bought a bitcoin and they still want it to fail, easier to bash something than trying to understand it. pretty much sum up the country i live in lol.

I have friends working in the News media industry and they all say the same thing. The editor are told what stories they must push in the media. He or she then instructs the journalists and the photographers to go out and gather the data and compile the story. The editor then decide what goes into the news paper and what not.

Most of the time, these people work on strict deadlines to get the story out, before other competitors and they have to cut corners < poor research / poor editing etc. > This means a lot of, let's call it articles gets published and if mistakes and errors happens, they usually just keep quite.

This is possibly a article or placed there to push a agenda coming from the shareholders. 

same thing with Coindesk.com and other BTC media. They have many interests....

Well they got some points. But to call it dead because 1 developers disagrees shows exactly how the media are reporting subjectively about bitcoin.
it's like bitcoin is the enemy.

I dont believe that bitcoin will be die because bitcoin is our currency that uses to pay for service or to buy stuffs online.
And also bitcoin is old enough and its hard as steel that the bitcoin will disappear in this year.
I think some altcoin investors want to kill bitcoin because if bitcoin will die the onther coins will rise fast... is just my thoughts
