Your "Bitcoin will be banned" FUD is 10 years old. What we've seen so far is the exact opposite. Increasing normalisation and legitimation of Bitcoin. The few countries that actually banned it, like Nigeria and China, are actually those with the deepest Bitcoin penetration because the only reason to ban it is to protect your falling currency but all that it accomplishes is to further encourage people to flee your local currency.
I’ve only been in crypto for 1.5 years but volatility doesn’t scare me as much as it used to especially with bitcoin. I try to ignore the social media FUD and look at dips as buying opportunities. Long term crypto is here to stay and isn’t going anywhere.
every platform is great at something and weak at others, and spreading your crypto across too many apps just adds stress and risk. Quick take: • Binance has the best liquidity and features, but the heavy app + regulatory FUD every couple months is real. • Kraken feels the most legitimate and solid, but the earning options are average and the UI is ancient. • Coinbase is the safest beginner choice, but those base fees are brutal unless you go Pro. • Nexo is actually really strong for the yield side (daily interest + borrowing against your crypto without selling) and the card is a nice bonus. A lot of people are in the same spot tired of juggling 3-4 different platforms. I’ve been keeping an eye on Cronos App, which is building a single account for crypto, stocks, and prediction markets. It looks like they’re trying to solve exactly this problem of having everything in one clean place. Still in waitlist phase but the direction seems promising.
Omg... Give it a rest with the Quantum FUD! It's pathetic!
I love how you just keep repeating this year after year, yet nothing ever happens, because nothing ever will, because idiots who spout this FUD lack a basic understanding of how mining and security works. This is like..."Bitcoin destroys the environment!!" level FUD. Come on man, at least come up with something that's actually convincing lmfao. You are really going to go down with the ship though, huh? At what ratio will you sell you ETH and take the L?
This sub: “Wow this Saylor stuff is fake news what a charlatan!” Also this sub: “Let’s talk about decade old FUD like quantum and constantly shit on crypto” I just hate like 90% of you and wish you’d fuck off, it’s so obvious this is organized brigading
You can’t be looking at all the attention that the AI data centers are getting for their power draw and seriously think, “ok so quantum computing is going to be at least 100x the power draw of data centers, the world is totally ready for quantum!!” Absolute bullshit, the fact that quantum is coming up again means the market makers are running out of FUD to manipulate the market in their favor.
And it's the weakest FUD cycle yet. By far.
The real FUD is from ThreeTonChonker working overtime in this thread.
Well at the end of the day you can always troll crypto subs and spread FUD about quantum, seems to be the only purpose of this sub now. Silver linings.
The main reason would be strategic control rather than simple investment return . The threat to crypto is nothing compared to the other Cryptography. This is just government national security control , the Bitcoin connection is pure FUD.
Quantum FUD has been a thing for over a decade, none of this information is new, and the BTC devs have been implementing solutions for years. Sorry your FUD is bullshit. The good news is you can fuck off and go back to wasting your life on something else.
Only one of your links is from the last 5 years and the first one you shared was written over a decade ago... > Anyone who’s peddling quantum FUD needs a perma ban Ah, the traditional Bitcoiner solution to information that doesn't support their chosen narrative... censorship! Back to the bitcoin sub you go if you want a safe-space away from potential thoughtcrime.
Read it and weep FUD bots. Anyone who’s peddling quantum FUD needs a perma ban for being an idiot troll. https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/6062/what-effects-would-a-scalable-quantum-computer-have-on-bitcoin https://arxiv.org/abs/1710.10377 https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2018/09/quantum\_computi\_2.html https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogerhuang/2020/12/21/heres-why-quantum-computing-will-not-break-cryptocurrencies/?sh=24a95b3c167b https://mattdf.xyz/why-quantum-computing-will-take-another-50-years https://scottlocklin.wordpress.com/2019/01/15/quantum-computing-as-a-field-is-obvious-bullshit/
You are in every thread spreading FUD, shut the fuck up already
This article is FUD in it's core. The banking sector has quantum security adoption set for 2030. Big crypto projects are implementing new quantum proof protocols, also with a deadline before 2030. Are new electric cars already quantum proof? And planes? This article is about a quantum security firm. They are just selling/promoting their own product in this article.
>Quantum security firm Project Eleven warned in a recent report that a computer capable of breaking that encryption could arrive as early as 2030. Google researchers have separately said that future quantum systems may require fewer qubits than previously estimated to crack modern cryptography. Both findings have accelerated concern among blockchain developers. Anyway, all those experts know shit. It's FUD am I right? Banking sector will have a big problem too /s
> Bitcoin "security budget" FUD It's not fud and actually pretty easy to understand. Every 4 years the security budget halves while securing more BTC. Fees aren't even remotely close to making up for that gap either. https://budget.day/ If you don't understand, I can't help you.
I mostly care because they keep spreading lies and FUD that are actually pretty harmful. Otherwise I wouldn't give a shit about their opinion.
> has booked an unrealized $33 million loss Poorly worded FUD “article”. If it’s unrealized then they didn’t sell, so what is booked in this context?
And people spreading FUD here hope that everyone just ignores completely that it doesn't make any sense from an economic point of view to conduct a quantum attack against Bitcoin.
How do people shitting on crypto without any logic benefit the sub? This announcement is about the government setting up a strategic bitcoin reserve which would mean buying thousands of BTC. How can that be bad news FOR CRYPTO? You don’t think people trying to muddy the waters with FUD is counter productive to having productive conversations about crypto?
Do you see how much attention all these data centers are getting for their power draw? Now imagine a power draw probably close to 100x. That’s what it would take for QC to actually be scary. BTC devs are already implementing solutions for all of this. Worrying about it is FUD.
“This is a serious threat take me seriously!!!” -comments from FUD bots who don’t understand quantum computing is decades away
You do know, the traditional bank system and nuclear codes will be exposed due to quantum too? Why is the FUD only exclusive to bitcoin? The world is chaos if quantum could hack into everything
Meanwhile the guy with a $2 million dollar house looks at Bitcoin and says "no I don't like the <insert FUD here>". 🙂
One of the biggest lessons I learned is that execution and custody are two completely different things. Early on, I treated my exchange account like a long-term savings wallet, but after seeing platforms fail, I now move anything I'm not actively trading into cold storage immediately. For actual trading, I use a tiered approach: keeping my main positions on Kraken for their reputation, while using other venues for specific execution needs. I might use a platform like BYDFi when I want to test out a strategy on a specific perp pair without putting my main stack at risk, especially since they have a 50K USDT demo account for practice. Separating your trading capital from your holding capital saves you a lot of stress when market volatility or exchange FUD starts picking up.
Little lesson, quantum computing using Shor’s algorithm would only be able to break the Eliptic Curve Signiture signature Scheme or (ECDSA) by reverse engineering the public key to find the private key and any BTC address that has not had the public key exposed is safe today and into the future until they produce a fix to the problem which is being worked on now maybe check out Post Quantum Lattice Signitures. Also without going into detail because it is very technical but this is a killer for your conversation anyway, NO quantum computer can break SHA256 not even if the quantum computer is using Grover’s algorithm the best it can do is reduce SHA256 security to 128 bits those 128 bits are unbreakable still so there is no threat to Bitcoins network. When peope hear quantum computer it all sounds very futuristic hey it can break anything when in reality they can’t and they are very unstable and likely years if not a decade away from being stable enough to do what we are discussing. Do your own research before you post and don’t spread FUD!
I can see why they did it though. I mean I saw the comment that I think led to your ban. I think they did it because of fear of FUD?
Look up FUD. then go to the website bitcoin is dead. Then research what Web3 is. After spending many hours of research you will have your answer.
You write "had a hard wallet..." And confuse a lot of new holders with your post. You made a beginner mistake and write like you followed common knowledge. But what you do really is spreading FUD to other beginners.
So basically the WSB bro types got wrecked by the FUD and everyone else laughed at them
Market makers thinking they can manipulate the market with FUD in a subreddit that everyone already knows is unreliable
FUD campaign from the 4 year maffia, they lost yesterday half a billions in shorts liquidated at 82k, they're spending all their tricks to stage the 4 year cycle narrative as far as they can.
Give it until Tuesday morning when suddenly people realise China didn't even lift a finger on Taiwan. Then markets will forget the complete "nothing burger" and correct. Almost as FUD as Greenland.
Load of shite. Don’t believe the whole narrative about him losing money and then going on a crusade. He’s just a ‘name’ that the opposition has paid to spread FUD.
This would be a nice contest for all the QC doomers. Too bad QC it's all nonsense, brainless FUD.
How is it FUD that if you bought the QQQ in the past 5 years instead of bitcoin that you would be wealthier?
Cherry picked dates to fit a narrative! The lamest form of FUD!
I’m long term hodlr.. It’s about spec, adoption, regulation, ease of use, utility, and sentiment. Typical and traditional market factors play too (seasonal/yearly cycles) I’ve always looked for bullish indicators (like above) as well as FUD indicators
Man, you absolutely nailed it. Been watching that exact same pattern play out for decades across different assets. It's wild how short-term memory and raw emotion drive so much of the narrative. People just can't seem to shake that FOMO/FUD cycle. Great observation.
Seems the FUD News typical before a market manipulation monday, and no surprise from the usual suspects... Did you know China banned Bitcoin years ago? Remind it, because it's likely the next headline "China Bans Bitcoin..."
The account freezing thing is real but usually happens when you end up receiving money from a flagged account... not really because you bought crypto. It's more of a banking issue than a crypto issue tbh. What helped me was keeping records of every P2P transaction, screenshots of the trade, payment proof etc. Also try to only trade with verified sellers who have high completion rates. I switched around between a few platforms for P2P, used BitValve for a while and Binance P2P obviously. Having options helps because sometimes one platform has better sellers in your region than another. Also consider using a separate bank account just for crypto stuff so even if something goes sideways your main salary account isn't affected. The 2k monthly SIP approach is solid tho, don't let the FUD stop you from DCAing.
It means there is so much interest in this segment of the market, that Strategy (like all well run companies) is evolving to meet the needs of its shareholders. It has some convertible debt on the horizon that keeps being used as FUD. And since they have 1000s of wallets set up with different tranches of bitcoin, at different prices, they can sell the higher cost Bitcoin, tax harvest and payoff debt, creating a cleaner balance sheet. It's brilliant financial engineering in my opinion.
Humans are emotional creatures. FOMO and FUD are both based on fear. This applies to every single asset: real estate, stocks, rare cars. Bitcoin is just more volatile and more prone to trigger emotions
**Everybody loses money**, not just the beginners. The people who learn to control their emotions just tend to win more than they lose overall. It doesn't take long to figure out FUD/FOMO market moves. You just need to control your emotions enough to be the ones buying during FUD and selling during FOMO, or just holding BTC and a few others for the next 10 years.
Education is the biggest problem. There is no reason to be afraid of a technology that can't even do basic math yet, let alone the massive calculations necessary to crack Bitcoin. Will this become a problem at some undefined point in the future? Maybe. If so will we fix it? Yes. This is one of 1,000 bits of FUD that are propagated by people who don't know what they're talking about. Education will solve this.

Idiotoc leftist orange man bad FUD.
The FUD is unbelievable. Bring it on.
I watched the whole 2-hour meeting. **Both the CEO and Saylor spent about 30 minutes talking about selling Bitcoin, so they're serious this time.** Here are my takeaways: * This seems to be a response to shareholders being upset that MSTR has been cannibalized and taken a backseat to buying BTC. They also want to reduce MSTR short selling and FUD. * Microstrategy's overall goal is still to increase MSTR price, BTC price, and BTC/share ratio. They are still focusing on STRC as their main product. * They want to pay back convertible bonds/debt early and discontinue selling any further convertible bonds. This means selling ~10% of their company value in either MSTR, BTC, or STRC. * There are a LOT of variables they're considering for when they want to sell Bitcoin. There's no simple formula they're using. * One of the main criteria they mentioned is whether mNAV is under 1.22, which is their breakeven point under which it's more advantageous to sell Bitcoin. * They want to maintain a reserve of about $2.5B (or 1.5 years in STRC dividends) in cash equivalents.
That’s banks fear-mongering to avoid competition. The banks could easily out compete stable coins by offering a higher yield precisely because they are only required to hold a fraction of those assets. The real issue is that the banks don’t want to lose profits by actually having competition force them to pay a decent return. This is a FUD campaign by the banks. There are so many steps between where we are now and any threat to the fractional reserve system that the idea that yield paying stable coins would disrupt the entire system that it’s laughable.
I was trading perps around 19/20 and remember how the whole “MEX is sketchy” narrative was all over Twitter. Looking back, a lot of that noise felt like bagholders from competing platforms pushing FUD while losing market share. The CFTC case was legit but calling it a “scam” always felt overblown. I don’t really trade derivatives much these days, but that take has held up pretty well over time.
Because he said so and his little lizard brain thinks the entire world is sitting staring at that wallet ready to scream and hit sell if anything happens at all. There is no reason the network fails even if satoshi comes back. There is no need for his coins to be gone forever people just like to be dramatic and spread FUD.
All part of the plan. Bitcoin was not allowed to go above 125k. ETFs supported the manipulation, retail was rekt from the last cycle, major FUD in Gen X and above. Just HODL and buy the next leg down heavily if we go to sub 50-55k. With diminished returns we should still see 4-6x, \~250k min. **Pray for stimi checks and 0% fed funds.**
It's consistent ability to be declared dead over and over, yet in reality it has continued to grow and grow, even thrive during the FUD. This is due to its past why it was created in the first place and the problems it solves.
Isn’t BTC supposed to go up in times like these? Or are you actually posting stock market FUD in a crypto subreddit.
HODL is a great strategy if you can hang on through the volatility. Most can't. Those who can, are those who clearly understand Bitcoin and see it for what it is, rather than what it's price is. The key is to first understand what problems Bitcoin solves, then you can see the long term value and can handle the volatility. Which then helps you HODL through the FUD and noise. Does that resonate with other's experience?
The amount of social media FUD around it is the indicator. There is an organized disinformation campaign around crypto in general but specifically XRP. Content creators get their accounts cloned and then reposted with text regarding ridiculous predictions like “XRP to 10000 tomorrow!” The more videos that get put out with crazy claims that don’t come true, the more it adds to the doubt when they don’t come true.
Tried to scare the bitcoin community with quantum FUD, got ratio\`d by a Google researcher who pointed out the "quantum" result works the same as a random number generator. The $120M valuation is doing a lot of work here.
Did you see what they did with monero? All from a shady looking project with zero real activity, the "community" are very poorly veiled intelligence agents sloppily putting together a "crypto" when really they just have the vast resources needed to FUD monero. Now suddenly we have someone in this sub shilling qubic? When the hype has died? The white paper is seemingly nonsense. Prove me wrong I beg you.
You aren’t wrong on some points but that doesn’t make you right. Investing is an extremely emotionally challenging thing for many people, possibly even most people. Learning to invest means mastering your own personal emotional roller coaster. It also does help people prone to fomo in at an ATH in which case a long DCA actually would come out on top. If DCAing is the alternative to either not being able to pull the trigger at all to invest, or to prevent FOMOing at the worst possible timing (which statistically new and retail traders are known for) then DCA is GREAT! You shouldn’t trash it. Additionally it’s a peaceful mindset that actually works because it develops patience and consistency. 2 values that go a long long ways in investing. Your logic that it’s a terrible strategy is just FUD nonsense. There is not a debate happening about the best possible way to invest. If you knew all the magic sauce you would have more money then you God and you sure as heck wouldn’t be wasting your time on Reddit. The truth is that there is multiple paths to victory. Finding a path that works for you emotionally and financially and allows you to enter the market at all puts you ahead of roughly 80% or more of the population.
The EF didn't stake with Lido. They just swapped aave weth to wsteth for a quick help to a protocol in deleveraging following the rseth bridge hack. [source](https://xcancel.com/ethereumfndn/status/2047762620703215732) That this narrative about EF staking with Lido exists shows how much anti-ethereum propaganda there is, based on straight up FUD. Pathetic.
>Well in that case we can trust nothing and go back to burn people to death because they say something we deem stupid and cant be proven. I think you're on to something here. Given the current gov't overreach in the U.K, for instance, literally creating a digital prison just to make sure little jonnie and jenny don't see naughty pictures online. I think this sort of draconian method will become the norm, soon. Oh, and then anyone who questions anything can just be thrown into prison and they can throw away the key -- right? Especially since they won't even be able to boot their devices without handing Starmer a pound of their own flesh. But that aside, my point remains. Being an advocate of free speech, I welcome you to explain, or anyone else for that matter, how we can be sure this thing did anything at all, since no single QC computation has done anything remotely close to exceeding the performance of a Commodore 64, there is nothing here to convince anybody with an I.Q. above room temperature that these computations are actually coming from qubits or just a Pentium chip hidden in the so called QC architecture. Personally I am absolutely amazed that people buy this Q-day FUD, given that it would take all of the current classic computers on earth trillions of years to break a 256 bit ECDSA key. But here you stand, suggesting that Q-day could happen at any moment now. ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE. Is it possible, given that crypto-currencies are chopping huge chunks out of the money tree built by the banksters, that this is all a bit exaggerated? Whadayathink?
> How can someone even believe in this FUD only over Bitcoin, really? Who was even talking about bitcoin? I think that most people here knows that the digital world is built on cryptography. Cryptocurrencies are only small part of that. If my house is going to burn down, I'm going to worry about everything in it, not just the $1000 cash sitting on the table. There are much bigger things at stake.
Usually this much general FUD means its about to gap up.
The measures being taken are rolling out post-quantum cryptography. Quantum proof encryption already exists - it just takes time and money to change from existing algos like RSA News about quantum computing progress still matters because the clock is ticking. If quantum progresses faster than expected, we need to accelerate the transition ASAP But, of course, you don't have a clue about any of this. You won't understand what I just said. Because you already proved above that you know nothing. You're happy dismissing any talk of quantum as FUD
TLDR: simply use some dificult words and new acronyms to spread fud over the sheeps about a nothing burger. How can someone even believe in this FUD only over Bitcoin, really? Financial, military and governmental systems are also screwed and with much ease with than Bitcoin. How are they protecting themselves ? What measures are they taking ? Bitcoin is the least of our problems if this crap ever sees they light of the day
”The most common response to a result at this scale is that 15 bits is nowhere near 256 bits and therefore <insert_cryptocurrency_you_hold> is fine. That reasoning is wrong (unfortunately not FUD/alarmist just physics). The distance from 15 to 256 bits is not a linear slog. Shors algorithm is polynomial in the number of bits being attacked. The logical qubit requirement grows roughly linearly with key size, and once you have fault-tolerant logical qubits the limiting factor is manufacturing and error-correction overhead rather than any new physics. Progress is gated by thresholds and not by brute-forcing the search space one bit at a time. The intuition people borrow from classical key search does not apply here and it is the single biggest source of confusion we encounter. Looking at the research, Googles recent paper put breaking 256 bit keys at under 500,000 physical qubits. The subsequent Caltech and Oratomic paper dropped that down to roughly 10,000 in a neutral-atom architecture. The remaining gap is increasingly an engineering problem rather than a fundamental physics problem. I am not claiming anyone is about to break Bitcoin next week and the uncertainty on the timeline is genuine but the trajectory is objectively clear.” https://x.com/conordeegan/status/2047719641280090275?s=46
It’s not really FUD. Just news that tether froze hundreds of millions of dollars
Are we really still, still, doing Tether FUD? Really?
Agreed, the sell of old coins will eventually end, although I would expect a longer bear, possibly like the one we had after 2013 bull. The FUD will be everywhere, buttcoin sub will grow, gaining a million ~~bots~~ quantum experts, saying if P2PK spends can by hacked, eVeRyThInG wiLL bE haCkeD!!! This being said, **I prefer the pain instead of freezing anything**. If we'll freeze coins now because of reasons, we'll be freezing coins in the future because of reasons.
Is it time for Tether FUD again already?
I needed to hear this Neat … The FUD is thick these days but we shall prevail.
>What surprised you the most after using bitcoin for a while? The amount of Shitcoiners attacking Bitcoin with FUD. Like Bitcoin is too slow, expensive, trackable - r/thelightningnetwork, liquid, ark, RGB are fixing that, yet they keep pretending none of them exist.
Brilliant post. Drew out a lot on FUD in the comments. Top comment completely ignoring the details and complaining about AI is a feather in your cap!
> it is destined to end in a monumental crash. How so? Just a feeling or actual data? Last month's trope of "oh noes, they'z underwater on their BTC holdings!" has now basically evaporated- bitcoin is basically at their cost basis +/- depending on the minute. And it was just FUD - they've been underwater before (much farther on a % basis), and had no problems at all. The other FUD is "they own too much" yet it's still under 5%. Meaning 95% of the bitcoin is owned by others.
FUD is in. It’s time to load up and watch it moon.
like state actors funding the quantum FUD: Problem/Reaction/Solution etc
Starting to see why the average Joe/Jane can’t see past stupid posts like. This is actually FUD.
What? Listen man, you had one good point, people will say "Bitcoin got hacked" and it will be chaos. I'm okay with that. I'll buy the dip. Pre empting quantum bullshit when it's all just FUD anyway is clown shoes. There's no quantum computer coming for Bitcoin, and if a nation state did have it, Bitcoin would be the last thing they would attack. First they would attack other nations, not something public and scrutinized every day on chain. you are a clown like jameson clown flop
Fees like FUD has more or less gone now…
Statements like this show your lack of understanding of the subject outside of incendiary headlines. Already there is BIP-360 (Pay-to-Merkle-Root) on BTQ Bitcoin Quantum testnet; post-quantum signatures (e.g., NIST ML-DSA, SPHINCS+) on Blockstream Liquid sidechain. And if you just hold and have not spent your BTC you’ve never exposed your public keys and thus are not currently at risk. But thanks for spreading FUD
lol not fishy, just more people actually owning btc and seeing through the FUD. Energy backs Bitcoin. What backs the dollar?
Enormous we even got as far as $60k without any structural failure and just liquidation of traders. All of the FUD we heard this time was extraordinarily weak.
Poorly done FUD for the people that do not know how Internet works, and never heard of the cypherpunk community.
Buttcoiner FUD? Get youself educated, watch this: https://youtu.be/OkVYJx1iLNs?si=nC-5WWBO_9UGNv7J
I believe this is all FUD. Yeah, Quantum exist and is capable of doing things but I doubt is going after Bitcoin. I believe it's all a scheme.
Yeah and what if (hypothetically) this is another Bitcoin FUD opportunity to freeze Satoshi's coins, reducing BTC supply by about 50%? It really does sound like "Problem/Reaction/Solution" type social engineering...
Sorry, I didn't mean to demean P2TR in any way :) Thank you for correction, I will have to read up on Taproot in more detail. I just haven't encountered a lot of "bc1p" addresses in my recent transactions (or maybe I just didn't notice). Since you're here, am I guessing correctly that you are not at all concerned about the recent quantum FUD (in general I mean, looking like 3-5 years ahead)?
Must be a slow news day. Or… this is FUD.
Can’t get to the yearly low without perfectly timed FUD.
