anybody who has been around for a little while knows the horror stories that come from those who short bitcoin...
anyways, this may sound a little strange but i am actually glad that they are saying these things publicly. if we can get some of the newbies who are only in bitcoin for the "investment" part an to "make money" out of it then the result of all this is positive. it is also known as flushing the newbies out.
I agree, but whether this will really affect the newbie who is in the world of cryptocurrency just for investment and make money, even to read news like this, the possibility is very small. I think they cannot be said as a newbie anymore, if they have made the news in the media to be one of the trigger factors in decision making. most newbie only thinks about the profits without observing the risk first.
