I remembered watching a short video about media brainwashing. Negative news is more attention-catcher rather than some good news. Because it has more impact and that's how their brain works. Finding the bad stuffs that makes you nervous so you are more likely to watch. The more you watch, the more money the media makes.

When there is a good news and a bad news, the bad news appears to spread more and people tend to listen a lot. And media being the way it is would like to garner more viewers to its fold and thus gives a preference to spread many time negative news. And especially when people tend to get into what is considered new, and what is not routinely accessed by all people is always look upon with skepticism.

With Bitcoins, it is the same since many people are still not aware of it, it is considered something out of the usual. Most times people watch these losses, criminal events and some countries' ban on BTC and start feeling uneasy. But this negativity needs to go and I am sure it will go very soon. When media starts investing in BTC or if a group does media work by initiating an ICO and decentralized blockchain system then things will change.

There is also a positive news going around in many countries but it is of a very small volume. When a government starts recognizing openly cryptocurrency then things will change in many countries. But that is difficult because the state wishes to control the economy to run the country which is fair on its part. What we are aspiring is a free market without any central control of our cryptocurrency.

This is actually a good question. I think the media is just trying to educate the masses on the good and bad side of crypto. When BTC was going up, the media was reporting this and this led to more people buying. In the same token, when prices start to drop the media will report the same. It is the nature of the industry. The report what is happening, whether good or bad or positive or negatice.

You should comprehend that most of the media is controlled by similar forces that control the western focal managing an account framework. Bitcoin being a limited, decentralized, straightforward framework is characteristically against the current unified private managing an account administration. All things considered, there are innumerable articles that cast pessimism on Bitcoin, however neglect to make any solid contentions. These articles are purposeful publicity, best case scenario. It is urgent to peruse basically amid these circumstances.

What is the reason for doing this? Do they intentionally do this so that even they can invest in Bitcoin and make some profit?


This is commonplace, when the news background forms and reinforces the mood of the market for setting the right direction. Pay attention to it when positive news is coming soon, but there will be few negative ones.

Beacuse media cand grasp something, that cant be predicted or calculated with high degree of accuracy. They only hunt for the juciest headlines to get the extra attention and buzz effect. Always was and will be the same beacuse of media policy stagnation.

The media is just an intermediary to report opinions from someone who I think is not so true. The media think bitcoin is negative that because they just want to gain popularity from people to be more famous again. But the news they spread was not very accurate.

Honestly to get attention. It's a hot topic and these kinds of news gets the most attention. People are mostly interested in "shocking" news . Things that are out of the ordinary.... and cute kittens.

I often read news about bitcoin in newspaper and television media, they mostly think that bitcoin is a dangerous thing so we are given an announcement not to use bitcoin. I'm pretty upset because I think that bitcoin has a lot of benefits. People who think negative about bitcoin I think that they are not familiar with bitcoin clearly. What I regret now is that the media has a very strong role, with the dissemination of information very quickly and widely then it is likely to be a lot of people who are easy to be influenced.

While the media does not earn bitcoin, they will continue to negatively affect it. When advertising companies will pay with the bitcoin media, the opinion will change.

My theory is some bigtime capitalist is controlling these media groups to convey black propaganda against bitcoins to veer away investors from bitcoins and instead in stocks. Genuine concern is rare specially in the media. So take this with a grain of salt; rich people who knows nothing about bitcoins hate bitcoins.


Black propaganda can cause one company down if they want to. They only judge what other say but don't know the real story and real information about Bitcoin. Even they say and write negative publicity about Bitcoin people still support it because we are wiser than media is.

I do not think that they do this so they can invest on Bitcoin and make profit.
I think that governments are behind media and they ask them to do such things because obviously governments are against cryptocurrency and bitcoin since spreading fake news and panic is the best way to fight Bitcoin...
And another thing is that Bitcoin is trending now, so making "click-bait" articles about it will get them alot of money from the traffic they'll be getting..

It is not that media is negative...

We are at the moment in a big global shift
from middle age to digital age
Media is at the service of who pay them to say that stay in midlle age is better than enter in the digital age
Digital age is unknown and dangerous...fear, fomo, all staff that served during a lot of time, and if we do not start to think with our own criteria it is gonna be the same as ever.

Bitcoin is free from censorship and it is the target of central powers
It is normal that most of media is against it, because most of media is at the service of central power.
Central power want you to remain in the middle age.

Does it make sense?

Media can control anything and many thing goes uncontrolled by this media also. This is not the fault of media, people behind the media is responsible for this. There may many thing available for this. We know that there is no relation between any bank and bitcoin and by using bitcoin people don’t need to pay too many fees and banking system losses their benefit for that.
So they may want to decrease the popularity of bitcoin and want to back these people to their banking system. Government also don’t look with bless at bitcoin so that media can attention of government by spreading negative news of bitcoin. Don’t take a decision by emotion. You should deal with this type of coin by observing yourself with the main site of these coin. Don’t panic, just keep cool.

I guess its human nature to hate things which is difficult to understand.Yeah i know thats some real deal psychology...thanks.
Media always runs out of topic and they just need something to criticize and a big cryptocurrency like bitcoin is more than enough for them.

I can agree with this even though if it’s just a psychological theory. I have noticed that most people hate on things they are unfamiliar with or lack knowledge on - and this doesn’t only apply with crypto related matters. There are even some critics who give out negative remarks about bitcoin even when they do not fully understand it. People are afraid of change and a coping mechanism for them with things that are foreign is to attack them.

People who write bad news and fake news about bitcoin are the people who don't have enough knowledge how blockchain is working. Obviously they don't consider researching first and then write the news

Media are looking for sensation everywhere. Bad news is better for the media because they increase viewership. Besides, someone finances the media and does not necessarily have an interest to have a good talk of bitcoinie.

Maybe because they don't really know the idea about bitcoin, and there are only few that really know about this cryptocurrency or probably they are afraid of change,because i do believe that bitcoin will grow and the national transaction is on digital term... that's why I think that bitcoin is negative on media .
