Less about the article, and more about the place it's popped up. The DM is of course a piece of shit, but it's also the world's biggest online news piece of shit. Kind of strange to see something like this on the front page.

dailymail must have hired some cryptofriendly journalist Smiley
this is not the first of the cryptorelated articles I'm reading by them:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5912755/Over-800-brands-cryptocurrency-dead-Bitcoin-falls-70-time-record-high.html
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-5839395/Bitcoin-hits-4-month-low-currency-exchange-theft.html


There seems to be a general negative theme underlying those articles. They may be publishing more crypto-related articles, but they definitely aren't promoting Bitcoin. The fight between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash promoters lends itself readily to the standard theme - negative crypto news which sells well.
