What do you think guys? Does his opinion have any real or historical basis? Or is his just a misinformed opinion?

(Note: I know that this post should probably be in the child board Press, but most of the stuff going on there are just news postings and not much else. I just want to know your informed and intelligent take on his opinion. Thanks.)


But the whole idea behind bitcoin is to create a decentralized environment for transactions? To accuse something of doing something that was its entire purpose in the first place just does not make sense itself.

In my opinion, he is definitely misinformed.

Price of bitcoin could go down in the short term, but bitcoin won't just "implode".
