Financial Times issues apology to bitcoiners after 13 years of Criticism.

Now that everybody is talking about crypto, all of the bitcoin detractors have shut up. And that's a good thing. Who needs their opinion anyway? It's all worthless.

I never want to read a "bitcoin is dead" article again, unless we mismanage the protocol so much that Bitcoin does actually start dying. But then it would be though our own actions not from some BS.

I know that no one needs the voice of those detractors, nor that of the experts who believe they know everything and also the precise moment in which things will happen, but unfortunately there are many people who do believe everything they say, and be influenced in investment decisions. I don't understand how there are people who invest their money based on predictions that are sometimes simply crazy. But like I said, time puts us all in our place.

news outlets or publishing companies will always exist to generate profit so it is possible that they release articles that are biased and very clickbaity there is no way of getting rid of them but what we can do is to make sure we are educated ourselves and we know how to fact check everything we see

people believe in easy quick money schemes or at least are hoping to get lucky they do not know what is crazy so long as money is involved they will always want to believe it and will not be bothered to actually learn about the investment opportunity they want to take and study its risks and possible consequences

bitterguy28 it is true that many media use these tactics to attract readers, thanks to this they obtain the financing they need to continue. But I have never liked that way of "informing" readers, that's why when I see that some media always use the same ways, I stop reading it. The problem is not that some are only looking for quick profits, the problem is that very few achieve it, while many others only lose their money.

It is all for the clout, they know that we are already many in this community. And that is why any article that is made by them is all about attracting readers. People above me are right about it, you guys have said the tactic that they do and it's all about getting more readers by simply making articles that supposed to make people feel good about reading them just as this.
