Bitcoin is indeed the king of all cryptocurrencies. People just spread speculation just to put people off from getting into bitcoin. Most people get into bitcoin with the aim of becoming rich within a short period of time. We need true believers in the crypto world, not people who are opportunistic.
Absolutely, many people here in cryto world splitting news fud about bitcoin that may lack some investor on panic selling. At some point, it make sense of those people who split an inaccurate FUD and take adavantage on it by investing or buying coins in an appropriate way.
