12/09 ANDY HOFFMAN (CryptoGoldCentral.com): Bitcoin Aint’ Goin’ Away!
Hope for near-term, widespread global Bitcoin adoption had a BIG setback this month; when hash rate and price suddenly crashed – the latter, through the Hoffman Line; in the wake of the seemingly inconsequential SV fork. Sure, anything can happen in crypto – but in the cold, hard world of global markets, the financial, psychological, and technical damage of such a move typically takes some time to recover.
That said, unless you actually believe SV is a threat – which to my knowledge, NO ONE in the Bitcoin community, save Faketoshi, believes to be the case – there’s no reason to fear something is “wrong” with Bitcoin. And in turn, that eventually these storm clouds will pass – yielding a bottoming of price and hash rate; and ultimately, a strong, sustainable recovery.
In times like this, it’s best to simply focus on WHAT Bitcoin is – i.e., a superior form of gold AND transactional currency; WHY it came to being – i.e., the destruction of decades of fiat currency abuse; and HOW dire the global political, social, and financial condition has become as a result. To wit, using a tool from my Miles Franklin days, a mere smattering of the week’s “horrible headlines” – that cumulatively, prove why Bitcoin “ain’t goin’ away!” Like, for instance, trade wars…

…and of course, the parabolically rising debt that can ONLY be managed with more money printing and market manipulation – in turn, yielding increased price inflation and fiat currency destruction…
