Bitcoin represents an existential threat to the banking industry and even the monetary system itself. This may be why the mainstream news has reported the death of Bitcoin countless times over the years. Its their attempt to scare people away and crush sentiment.
As we can see, Bitcoin is still alive and well and bigger than ever.
I couldn't agree more that to many governments and banks, bitcoin is referred to as something dangerous and threatening. This may not be true to some areas but this is what we are experiencing in my place. Initially, my government didn't have any knowledge about this field so there was no law for bitcoin. But after it became so popular and people in my country started to use it more, the government realised that this would be a serious threat to them since they couldn't take money away from us anymore. They started making all the fuss around how bad bitcoin is and causing us to think that bitcoin is just no more than a trouble and they are likely to ban bitcoin in the near future. I hope that they would change their mind someday.
