Ugly move from Yahoo: "Bitcoin is to the crypto market what Netscape was to search engines in the early days of the Internet. There’s a need for a better solution, and the market is responding."

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/forget-bitcoin-crypto-assets-154341517.html

I think we're gonna see a huge BTC rise in the coming months, it's the calm before the storm. HODL!

As per the data released by Stat Counter, Yahoo's market share in internet search market is only 1.52%. So I doubt anyone will be interested in such news against bitcoin.

But I don't really see this article as an attack against the crypto market. Because it is promoting altcoins through this article. So even if this article shows any impact on the crypto market (highly unlikely) it will probably be a net positive.

If Google had released this article, then it would have been grave concern. But who cares about Yahoo anyway!

Yahoo is getting sold again. https://edition.cnn.com/2021/05/03/media/verizon-yahoo-sold-apollo/index.html
Maybe this is the policy of the new employers? We'll have to wait and see the line of the future news from there, but it doesn't look good.

Might be the cause... This might be the opinion of the new owners. This happens with most of the news outlets or publishers, The writers have to adjust to the new owner's thoughts. Also, there are people who try to create a FUD among the market so that he/she/they can buy the coin when it gets dumped. I don't think anyone will fear these things now. Hodlers are stronger than ever and a fake FUD is harder to get successful.

Maybe, Yahoo just want to give altcoins an opportunity to become known not only bitcoin.

There are a lot of other profitable coins that are existing in the market and you just need to explore it and know how to use it.

We all know that Yahoo is one of the most popular internet websites that are still active and this can greatly affect the bitcoin's adoption in many countries.

It's funny how he pushes altcoins of his picks while pushing down Bitcoin because of his seemingly negligible knowledge of what Bitcoin even is. It's unfortunate, but that's how it is when you want your article to actually be noticed. It's the shill of the altcoins, and what better way to actually advertise his coins than to talk down on what Bitcoin is right?

But hey, nothing changes, it is for a fact that some altcoins perform better at the bad sides of Bitcoin, but the fix for that is only a matter of time. Change wasn't something that was dropped in one whole package, rather it was built upon changes of changes from itself.

The guy was even saying bitcoin is not the most attractive imagine such a derogatory statement, I don't fancy all those cryptos he mentioned I will rather continue to invest in bitcoin for every dip in the price, I believed the guy is indirectly hyping those altcoins why singling out those ones out of the numerous and viable altcoins in the market like ethereum, BNB etc, I will termed that article as his own personal opinion its up to every reader or investor to decide whether to follow the advice or not.

This is a clickbait article,but I understand the hate towards Bitcoin.Many people are upset by the slow transactions and high fees.
If someone creates an altcoin,that is as secure and decentralized as BTC,but with cheaper and faster transactions,many people will embrace it.There's nothing wrong with that.
The Bitcoin fanatics shouldn't be such closed-minded traditionalists.We must embrace change and innovation.
The problem is that don't see such altcoin in the current crypto market.

I really wouldn't go as far as saying that they "hate" Bitcoin, it's just that there are really A LOT of ignorant so called "journalists" out there unfortunately. The same reason how there are a crap ton of non-factual articles getting spread out across the internet concerning Bitcoin's negative environmental effects.

The author of the article, Nikolas Joyce is the CIO of The Strategic Funds. I reckon that he might be obviously shilling for those coins he mentioned and probably are advising his clients to buy it, or maybe they have bought a bag full of this Altcoins.

So don't be surprised by this article, might be better to ignore it and just buy bitcoin right now because the price is again at a discount.

Just like any other FUD or articles that are pretending to be not be FUD but is a FUD, we just have to ignore it because most of them have the same structure as back when bitcoin prices was still around the 3 to 4 digit prices.

Naiveness can kill than a disease, we shouldn't be bothered about what people said out of lack of knowledge mind you ex-Paypal CEO once compare Bitcoin to his autograph and now he wishes he didn't.
The writer of the article posted only believes TPS is the major thing that defines good crypto whereas the technology itself and the concept are what plays an important role.

There would be some change of minds in the future and most likely with these kind of negative sentiments turns out to be just contradictory on what theyre currently doing

which they might be saying up some Fuds for them to hope to enter out on the market with cheaper price or actually had already bought coins behind the curtains.

When these kind of words are popping out in the market then its likely we might really be seeing some another bullish run in upcoming months or years.

I don't know if there's a change of hearts in the future but it looks like they were just like Bill Gates and other large institutional investors yet don't want to settle to a high volatility market. Well, time can tell whether they're going to change their minds or not it doesn't matter as long as there are people who still support Bitcoin in the future and that only matters.

People really need to do their own research if they really want to invest but I wonder what makes yahoo company think that Bitcoin is not worthy to invest. It might be another propaganda that would lead to a FUD or something but I don't see any slight effect yet. But maybe their intentions are different compared to other FUDers out there.

Just another click bait article from Yahoo and perhaps they have missed the boat on bitcoin, or this does not reflect the company itself but by the author only.

Bitcoin is down and so is the whole market, although there are some altcoins that continues to pump, but more investors are taking the profits already and there's a big possibility that there will be a complete shift to bitcoin in the coming months so yeah, this could be a calm before the storm, so everyone should be ready to buy at this current price again.

These opinion writers always make a simple linear extrapolation. If Bitcoin falls, it must fall to zero. If alts are rising, they must continue to rise until they are bigger than Bitcoin. Bitcoin haters will always find new ways to dismiss Bitcoin, even if it means supporting altcoins.

Or, in this case, it's just blatant shilling for DeFi and one altcoin called UNI. If someone investigated it, they could probably uncover a "donation" to the author from someone with a large stake in DeFi.

I don't think anyone in the cryptocurrency sphere should care about the negative things some private companies, a government official said about Bitcoin cause in the end Bitcoin is still winning despite their negative statement which was planned to cause fud.
Looking at the link you provide, I believe it a paid advert and I don't think you'll expect Yahoo or the article writer will praise Bitcoin rather than doing what they are paid for.
