I think the answer that it would jeopardize their source is a valid answer to that question.

Agree. Frankly, I think people who keep attacking CF for "not disclosing sources" are about as clueless as the Hashtards. In the U.S. at least, reporters have a long and storied history of keeping their sources secret and many reporters have gone to jail rather than disclose sources even when ordered to do so. A free press is pretty damn important to democracy. So wtf with all the "show me your sources" crap? Get the f*(Jk over yourselves.

I have no idea how CF gets its info, but I greatly respect a news organization that can get to the truth repeatedly, over and over again, long before anyone else. Not just with GAW but Mt Gox and other stories.

In general, news sources that have credibility when they say something without sources tend be have been around for more than 9 months, tend to be more than a few people, and tend not to go around calling people who disagree with them trolls.

They also tend to have the kind of security that makes it difficult to hack their website 5 times in 6 months.

I still don't get what is it about CoinFire that gets everyone so agitated. There is a shitload of news and "news" sites I don't like, so I just don't read them. Problem solved. I suggest everyone to try that practice. Freedom of speech and freedom of choice to not listen to that speech is awesome.

It is only Hashtards that come up with their bullshit about Coinfire. The truth of the matter is that Coinfire and Mike Johnson have been reporting facts, verifiable facts. When it comes to news that is what counts. Because Coinfire has used truth and facts to lift the veil of fraud off of GAW, Homero, Paycoin, Zenminers, the whole shitshow has painted a target on the site and the writer by said crazy Hashtards who do not like their scam seeing the light of day.

Fuck em if they can't stand the truth.

Can't wait for more news.

Mike do not let the Hashtards scare you off. You can't fix stupid but you can filter it. They are only an ignore button away from irrelevance.

That just isn't true. Much of their reporting is not verifiable, and when asked they just said "trust us". (I could point you to the tweets where they outright said that they aren't willing to prove anything.)

As I've said before, Coinfire has published lies about Authy and refused to correct them when I pointed it out to them and they've lied to Wired about releasing documents. Those actions make me distrust them, regardless of how many other stories they happened to be right on.
