WTF?! (What the FUD) Let's Bitcoin Like It's 2017
tl;dr lt feels like 2017 all over again! The 2021 May crash may make your hands feel weak, *and 2021 June is looking to be no better*, but we've *****literally***** been here before! `I was supposed to write about what to do when the world ends but the market kept going down like there was no end!` It may also seem like the FUD is just neverending right now with all those issues with bitcoin. But let's go back to 2017, to see if there's anything "*new*": `I will assume that you're hip to the latest in FUD news relating to BTC so I will only link to the 2017 ones.` The latest flavor of FUD is bitcoin being **hackable** because of just how much was recovered from the Colonial Pipeline hack ransom money... But bitcoin was already **hackable** in 2017! https://money.cnn.com/2017/12/07/technology/nicehash-bitcoin-theft-hacking/index.html#:~:text=Hackers%20have%20carried%20out%20a,worth%20more%20than%20%2470%20million.&text=Roughly%204%2C700%20bitcoins%20were%20stolen,of%20Friday%20afternoon%20in%20Asia. China is banning bitcoin...AGAIN! Did l just say **again**...as in like in 2017? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.businessinsider.com/china-ban-bitcoin-exchanges-2017-9%3Famp Bitcoin causes ***global warming?!*** ***Warming*** the planet since 2017! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.wired.com/story/bitcoin-global-warming/amp You're gonna have to pay **taxes** on your bitcoin gains! **Tax** me like it's 2017! (Okay, 2018 this time... but still technically 2017) https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/greatspeculations/2018/01/09/cryptocurrency-traders-owe-massive-taxes-on-fat-gains-in-2017/amp/ But no, it's just the whales and institutions ***manipulating*** the market! ***Manipulating*** from 2017 still. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/06/13/much-of-bitcoins-2017-boom-was-market-manipulation-researcher-says.html But yeah, only **criminals** really use bitcoin, anyway. **Crime** does pay, the 2017 way. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbloomberg/2017/12/28/using-bitcoin-or-other-cryptocurrency-to-commit-crimes-law-enforcement-is-onto-you/amp/ But wait! A ***South American country*** is here ready to accept bitcoin in a world "***first***". Did you say, "***South America***", and "***first***", just like in 2017? https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2017/10/this-latin-american-country-could-adopt-bitcoin-as-an-official-currency And **institutions** are now accepting bitcoin. Same **institutions** from 2017? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.fool.com/amp/investing/2017/07/06/5-brand-name-businesses-that-currently-accept-bitc.aspx In summary, we're all just living in bitcoin's 2017...and it feels just like Apple getting new features that Android has had, for years (kinda feels better...for some). https://www.popsci.com/story/diy/stolen-features-android-apple/ `P.S. lt wouldnt be crypto without Elon Musk FUD...in 2017...` https://www.google.com/amp/s/fortune.com/2017/11/28/elon-musk-lost-bitcoin/amp/ **Oh yeah, feel free to hold on for dear life to your coins. Hope your hands don't feel as weak now.** My first double-dip article also posted on https://www.publish0x.com/crypt-o-crypt/wtf-what-the-fud-lets-bitcoin-like-its-2017-xxyjvvr
