Washington post wat a bunch of C*** Suckers
This kind of anti Bitcoin posts are sort of expected, anything negative and they will jump on.
We all know how powerful are the medias (social media, blog, portals or print media)
They can write whatever they want but i am afraid that they will write again for bitcoin.
But in this case for good when the price (I hope) will be increased before and after the halving.

The Washington Post published that article because someone high up there read the Hearn story in another paper and decided to copy it. Once one newspaper publishes a story all the others copy it and publish it themselves. This same story will be published by another ten papers before the weekend. None of them want to miss out on publishing something the others already published, and it doesn't matter to them if the story is rubbish.
Notice the article never actually decides on just why Bitcoin is dead. It throws out a random and sometimes incoherent list of attacks on bitcoin, and demands readers accept that conclusion. (The comment about the People's Army controlling bitcoin is just precious - something that is about as sensible as the Washington Post publishing an article seriously claiming that flying monkeys were massing to invade Iran. I'd like to see the author try to defend whatever it was he was thinking on that point.)
I love how they claim bitcoin is dead because it faces growing challenges. But why can't it survive indefinitely as a kind of digital gold (accepting the low transaction limit)? And do they not understand that a core strength of bitcoin is that it is software, able to be redesigned and updated as needed?
The "civil war" is not a problem but a virtue of bitcoin - it shows that people are closely studying proposed changes and arguing it out to ensure that we end up with the best possible result. That's better than a less contentious method that allows errors to be enacted and maintained (ala central bank decisions).

Full on FUD attack right now. 6 months to halving. Coincidence?
Oww media.. they only want a way to make issue..
And if mike Hearn doesn't believing in bitcoin then no problem ..
The time will tell everyone the future...
It's global revolutionary gold of internet.. not only a people can decide the future of it..
And it's a great time that price has been decreased let's buy bitcoin to store them for a price increase..

Usual mainstream media coverage on Bitcoin... Should be ignored, as usual.
People are singing (and some want to sing) Bitcoin goodbye too early... Maybe they have suggestions or something already working to replace it
Anyways, cheap coin here I go!

<>(meanwhile i am buying like fuk) 
"Like fuck" is pretty accurate. Back to $380
Great everyone move along nothing to see here "Bitcoins dead".......... (meanwhile i am buying like fuk)
Yeah that's exactly how the media perceives it and tries to communicate it with the outside world. Just cause someone feels Bitcoin isn't going on the right path, they have worded their article to make it seem like Bitcoin's really dead.
Just remember once Bitcoin soars up again with some giant merchant implementing it for payments - "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."

This is the 90th time that Bitcoin has died so far.
I like both the comments. It is always that which thing we ignore most that thing one day will come big in their face. In over society their is a proverb that before anyone dies if anyone rumours their death then that person lives some more time, like this they can cheat the death, the same way when ever some one tells that Bitcoin is death that is a boon to Bitcoin and it will boom more soon .
Why but who are really have full knowledge about bitcoin they know that actual fact about bitcoin and they wont get affected by this rumors, this all games played by big players so that low traders will panic and sell their bitcoins and market get some crash , so that they can cash in some price fluctuation and buy back in low price.
First of all it is all in your mind. Bitcoin is still the best, the biggest and won't fall because some angry developer is dissatisfied that his solutions were not accepted.
Bitcoin will change if we really would need that change asap, for now it seems that network capable of surviving for now despite fatalism of Haern.

paid article. doesn't mean a thing. bitcoin will still live many years to come 
The paid FUDsters must be really busy, lately they are working at an alarm pace, it shows they are really scared of Bitcoin being a success so they are going all-in into the FUD departments, the filthy pigs wouldn't shut it up about Bitcoing dying. We will hit 100 times Bitcoin RIP in https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoinobituaries/ this year, a nice milestone.
Nowadays, newspaper are unfortunatly written to sell the most. What I still don't understand is why, with all those clowns repeating the same thing again and again, people don't get tired of hearing of Bitcoin's multiple deaths. I think that people will understand that if they see again and again that Bitcoin died, it means that it survided his last death. After a few times, I hope that they will understand that each time that it is supposetly dead, it isn't.
Just remember once Bitcoin soars up again with some giant merchant implementing it for payments
You do know that the number of BTC-accepting merchants hasn't increased, and http://www.coindesk.com/is-bitcoins-merchant-appeal-fading/ , right?
it has to do with all the rencet news probably, and anyway there are only two real merchants remained, amazon and ebay, the other even if they not accept bitcoin never, no one would care about
anyway, i'm not expecting bitcoin to be embraced by any single shop out there, especially phisical shop, don't dream too much on certain things..
Think again, Overstock, Newegg and Tigerdirect are considerably medium to big sized merchants. They need not be physical, but even if they are it isn't really dreaming big, it's very much possible.... I say keep dreaming big
Also since you mentioned that amazon and ebay were the only two real merchants remaining, think about Alibaba Group.
Of all the companies mentioned, Overstock is the only one which made claims of actually holding a portion of "BTC payments" in BTC.
All use payment processors, and are actually getting paid in USD, not BTC.

So, when exactly Washington Post become expert for virtual currencies?
I do not believe in their political and economic judgments, much less in their judgment about Bitcoin.
They are really funny

Just remember what did say Rothschild!
"Buy when there's blood in the streets"
They are just speculating about what will happen I don't mind what they are thinking. So far Bitcoin still exist there are enough people who support Bitcoin.
