Many view Bitcoin as a groundbreaking invention, challenging traditional financial systems and urging us to rethink them in our digital era. However, it also faces criticism on several fronts. Skeptics claim that its volatile prices make it a risky investment and difficult to use as a currency; that its mining process consumes a lot of energy, raising environmental concerns; that its association with illegal activities, such as money laundering and funding terrorism, damages its reputation; that regulatory uncertainty and the complexity of its technology present challenges for users and authorities alike; and that potential security risks, like hacking and fraud, raise questions about its safety for general use. "BITCOIN DEATHS" was born from this mix of views. It tracks every instance where Bitcoin has been declared "dead" by "experts" and the media over the years, and visualizes them in an interactive chart. View names, quotes, publications, source links, and more! Despite its name, "BITCOIN DEATHS" shows that Bitcoin is still active and thriving, as seen in its market prices, transaction volumes, and blockchain activity. I hope this project will be a valuable resource and serve as a testament to Bitcoin’s continued resilience, adaptability, and value. (A big shoutout to the OG, https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoin-o.... But several of their links, article dates, and context quotes are inaccurate, and it hasn't been updated since April 2023.)
