5 sats \ 4 replies \ @cryptocoin 25 Apr 2022 \ on: Who are some anti-bitcoiners that are worth following? bitcoin

Whether any are a good follow, I couldn't tell you but some names in that list include:

  • Frances Coppola (journalist, thus has economic incentive to be anti-bitcoin)
  • Peter Schiff (sells gold, thus bitcion is a competitor in the store of value asset class)
  • Alex De Vries / @Digiconomist (central bank staffer, will spin whatever he can to persuade you that bitcoin mining is bad)
  • Cas Piancey and Bennet Tomlin, Crypto Critics Podcast
  • Tim Swanson / @OfNumbers

in addition to the usuals, published here:

And hundreds of authors who have published a "bitcoin is doomed / dead" article:

I just realized something. There are essentially two categories of critics:

Those who are affiliated with the fiat money industry (Coppola, De Vries, Swanson) or competing store of value (goldbugs like Schiff),
or they are environmentalists (Howson).

Take most every critic and they fit in one or both of those buckets.
