Do you think the media is trying to destroy Bitcoin and cryptocurrency ? I think they show 95% of the times only bad news. Why is this happening ?

Nope. It's a fact. You can read a good article with a title "WHY BAD NEWS IS GOOD NEWS" that explains it all. (https://psmag.com/social-justice/bad-news-is-good-news) Here's the relevant quote from the article: "According to recent research published in the journal Information Economics and Policy, the public demands bad news because it is more beneficial than good news"
The same thing applies to crypto, i.e. crypto+bad news sells better than crypto+good news. I believe that's the reason behind it.
