“Bitcoin is dead” headlines are dying themselves

One of the oldest Bitcoin educational websites, 99Bitcoins, has been tracking headlines about Bitcoin’s “death” in mainstream English-language media since 2010. In 2024, only two entries were added to their "Bitcoin Obituaries" list - and one of them seems to have been a mistake.

This means there was just one notable declaration of Bitcoin’s death in major media this year: an article on the European Central Bank’s website stating, “The latest approval of an ETF doesn’t change the fact that Bitcoin is not suitable as a means of payment or as an investment.” And even that was way back on February 22.

Compare this to 8 mentions in 2023, 27 in 2022, and a whopping 45 in 2021. The trend is clear: global sentiment is moving from denial to acceptance.

We’re entering a new stage of Bitcoin’s global recognition. Onward and upward! 🚀
