250,000 piano tuners in Canada? LOL. I doubt that there is 250,000 pianos. What a fucking idiot.
Yeah, we he has to stretch that far to get a point out that's just beyond over the top in trying to use a metaphor. It's one thing to point out certain flaws that one sees in something but to try and be cheeky like that just discredits him altogether.
Crypto users are growing every single day and at a rate I am sure that is a bit higher then professional tuners or whatever he chooses as his next metaphor. He is going to look like a fool in a couple of years and we will just make jokes about him.

Just like Letterman making fun of the Internet to Bill Gates and asking why is it a thing.

1995 bill gates on letterman.

As we were about the internet as well, Why the hell do I need a computer to record the audio on a baseball game I have a tape recorder noob.

Now who do you know that owns a tape recorder vs a cell phone?  In fact do you know anyone that owns a tape recorder?

Have you all seen this video (from Oct. 2014) where Jeffrey Robinson denounces the long term viability of Bitcoin?

He calls those that thing Bitcoin is going to take over the world or soar to high prices "lunatics", cult like behavior.

He says that the Cuban peso is a stronger currency than Bitcoin. And with only 250k active Bitcoin users there are more piano tuners in Canada (than BTC users).

What do you all think?

I've been saying the same thing over and over again and every time believers answer "stop fudding"  Smiley

I consider it a compliment these days to be called crazy or a criminal by the likes of these assholes.

Jeffrey Robinson is trying to sell his book. The book must really suck if he has resort to lies, half-truths, and innuendo.

I think both Jeffrey Robinson and Richard Quest can both eat a bag of dicks.

If we're the lunatic fringe, the cultists, I'd love for Jeffrey Robinson to go toe to toe in a debate with Andreas Antonopolous:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUNGFZDO8mM

He's obviously trolling to get more mentions and further his rep as a fraud buster.  He claims that Bitcoin the Blockchain technology is innovative, but the currency/commodity itself is pure pump and dump scheme.  That in itself doesn't make sense, because the Blockchain and Bitcoin protocol cannot be separated.  They were invented to work in conjunction with eachother.  The Blockchain can be forked, built on top of, but both are here to stay.  Together.

Obviously Dell, Overstock, Expedia, Newegg, Paypal, and Microsoft didn't get Jeffrey Robinson's memo catering to us lunatics.

this video has been posted , I remember seeing it
I can agree with him in some points  , but how they made those calculations "250k active bitcoin users" ? how do they calculated that ? thousands of wallets (some are from the same user) or they checked only wallet with money in ?

It has long term viability.

I agree with the "cult" thing however. Its pretty nuts, especially here and on reddit. "Praise Satoshi"  Roll Eyes
