Being asked to write a hitpiece on Bitcoin requires a journalist to forgo journalistic integrity. In 2024, Gabriel Dance had to inappropriately use marginal emissions to make Bitcoin's fossil fuel use to make it look worse than it is. In 2026, @realrobcopeland from @nytimes had to intentionally distort the meaning of a VanEck quote by removing context, presenting readers with a false inference of wheat VanEck meant by a quote about avoiding MSTR, which is contradicted by VanEck themselves. Bitcoin is antifragile to these tactics NYTimes (falling) reputation is not I look forward to the day that a critic is able to criticize Bitcoin honestly without resorting to the easy to-go's of obfuscation and distortion that you can use to malign any asset you wish.(Daniel Batten)
