I just went to Marketwatch and saw this image(see below) on the front page with a link to an opinion article to how cryptos are affecting prices of graphics cards.
!
Now I dont want to go into details how it describes bitcoin as bad becasue gamers cant afford graphics cards what caught my eye is the image. Featuring an evil like kid with bitcoins on his eyes reminded me of a devil like image warning people of this as a kind of disease and not freedom tool as the way I see it. Because having sound money is probably one of the basic things required for you to have freedom.
Mainstream media seems hellbent to keep the average Joe of getting their hands on these by posting images such as this. My question is how long will it keep fooling the average Joe? Bitcoin is certainly getting more and more coverage (bad coverage in mainstream media) but there are still a lot of people who havent heard of it. And you know what they say first image sticks with people so people exposed to images and articles such as these will have a negative image of it and will be that much harder to be convinced of what it truly is. And other cryptocurrencies like Steem how will they be portrayed by mainstream media and how they are affecting Facebook/Youtube?
If you've seen other images portraying cryptos in a negative view please share/comment below.

True but i dont think they are trying to be sceptic here but more follow an agenda against people getting to the truth

Many journalists don't care (and know) about truth :) Once, when lifehacking just became popular, I as a blogger started being interviewed about it. It went nowhere as they didn't want going to the point, just playing with catchwords and making fun out of it, completely disregarding the essence.
