I also do not think why they do that ..
whether just to lower the price of bitcoin and they will buy cheaply, but that's their job looking for news although the news is sometimes far from the truth,
and now bitcoin like enemy to the media.

Whenever a government announces to regulate bitcoin or cryptocurrency or whenever BTC price is in downfall, most of the media start to warn everyone not purchase or invest in Bitcoins.

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


I think they find bitcoin negative because many people in media says that bitcoin is a scam, so other people will actually think it is because they don't really know anything about bitcoin. Maybe they do this because, they have no idea what they can get or learn here in bitcoin, they just believe what other people would saya and this is one of the things that i hate about people.

Well because they are biased.  They did not do some research first before going to their reports.  Some media are even controlled by big companies or banks.  Those who will greatly affected by the legalization of bitcoin.

There had been a number of online scam which run away with investors money. Seeing the huge returns involved with Bitcoins, it also looks suspicious to many. As a result, media tries to make people aware about Bitcoins as well. Only thing is that they need to do more research before coming up with the news as it affects the prices.


Actually, Media only uses Headlines that can easily be sold. Wouldn't it be more sellable if you use a headline "Bitcoin a Scam" than to "The LN and whats the use of it." They tend to use negative news of bitcoin/Crypto because it generates more clicks for the readers.
You have a point, I guess they were just creating a new topic so that they have a new article to tackle about. Maybe you were right that they tend to use negative news of bitcoin rather than to a positive one because it is more captivating. Some of media company just want a profit and they don't care if their works is factual or not. They only know is the shallow part of cryptocurrencies but they don't know the true meaning and purpose of this thing.

You must understand that the majority of the media is controlled by the same powers that control the western central banking system. Bitcoin being a finite, decentralized, transparent system is inherently against the current centralized private banking regime. As such, there are countless articles that cast negativity on Bitcoin, but fail to make any strong arguments. These articles are propaganda at best. It is crucial to read critically during these times.
Yes it is true that you are talking about btcoin in the world of the internet, there is a story that tells the trees where the tree tree there fruit will not fall far from the tree, so the development of bitcoin, the more the problems that hit the bitcoin, both in terms of medsos or governance that will be a problem for bitcoin.

Whene you say media you say also governement
It is not the media that hate bitcoin. Media is just a medium where you can relay news may it fake or true. Media is making a negative news about bitcoin because somebody who is powerful and rich enough to manipulate media. They are paid to create fear that causes the price of bitcoin to fall. That is what i am thinking.

Media depending on the owner, I think if the media preach negative things about bitcoin then it is because media owners do not like and hate with bitcoin or do not want to take risks because of the fact bitcoin get banned from almost all countries.

Not all the time that media's are always on the side of the government. There are times that medias are bias with their government and they are the only medium to express the feelings of the people. But what's on my mind here is that these media's are also manipulated by big companies that wants to spread negative ideas about bitcoin. And the main reason of it there's a potential that bitcoin can kill their business.

the media earn money with news that provoke panic or very enthusiastic, in short... the media make money publishing news that has a big impact.

Did you see when the bitcoin price was $18,000 what happened? all news channels were talking well of bitcoin, if today the news channels are talking bad bitcoin is because they need news that have some impact.

if you do not have great good news about bitcoin, then the media will post bad news.



get used to it because this is something that happens with everything that is popular (in this case, bitcoin is popular)

well I've answered these questions and just to add: imagine that tomorrow you become the only person on the planet with superpowers, you would be on the cover of the newspaper every day and the critics would surpass the compliments
That is actually the job of media. They are looking for the best news that would catch the interest of the people. Since Bitcoin is found very interesting by a lot of people, because of its rising popularity. Media is following whatever news they got involving bitcoin whether it is good or bad, or even just a mere speculation.

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.

It's very simple, the media will only report malicious reports, they don't have bitcoin, they can't see that we bought bitcoin and made money, and the news in the media is mostly eyeball.



I think that it's because media is controlled by the big shots ..the businesses men's and the bankers ..
They are not that much profited by the Bitcoins thus they try to show the negative side of the cryptocurrencies.. more or so.. no matter what example you take...when something comes new in the market the negative criticism is well sold ..

Media now is prone to very prone to negative comments, sometimes, they would keep their eyes onto negative comments and they would publicized and it would be more trending than the positive comments about bitcoin, the media doesnt hate bitcoin, its the people using it.

we do not have to worry about the media because they just write what the current issues are and it has become their job to write interesting news and be everyone's conversation.

Media always perceives the information they've want to imply to people. I think it is just a matter of media information manipulation where media always send the information to people as they want to control the movement of the cryptocurrency in the market. It is much easier for them to manipulate the people if they will control the minds and their perspective to bitcoin.

Media has to have a story and bitcoin is one that they have followed for a few years whether it's its surge in price or as soon as it goes down any amount. Unfortunately many listen to the media without making their own informed choices.
Its not just media that is negative to bitcoin even on this forum there can be a fair amount of negative comments about bitcoin.

Media is negative about bitcoin because they want something talk about and they wanted to be popular. Thats their way or strategy to gain more fans and viewers.

Simply because media got no idea about the concept of bitcoin. What they care about is just plain business and earn money with their job. It doesn't matter for them whether they make fake news or real news because what important for them is just to earn money. Media is connected to powerful people who wants to spread whatever they want by paying them.

It's not necessarily negative. Mainstream media will publish anything that will produce shock value and generate interest. They live of page clicks and tv ratings. I've seen on CNBC headline "why bitcoin will go to $100,000" and "bitcoin will go to zero" on the same page. They just want to cause controversy which will make people talking, and cover as many stories as possible. True, some media has agenda slightly leaning in one direction, other in the opposite, but in most cases, and among most popular outlets, they only care about their own viewership and income, not necessarily about the subject.

In the society we leaving today, only bad things make news and the only way for the media houses can keep selling is to dive into any negative happening to make headlines. Cryptocurrencies are the order of the day and the media is very interested in bitcoin most especially so any time there is a negative turn in bitcoin the media will take advantage.
