Nº 9 is full of BS.

For a good picture of how bitcoin usage is growing see these charts and stats:
https://blockchain.info/charts

Transaction volume, active wallets, nº of users... everything is growing at an accelerating rate, in spite of the falling price in 2014....

Never mind that 2 years ago it was very hard to find a place to spend bitcoins and now just Bitpay + Coinbase have 90.000+ merchants signed up.. including Dell, Expedia, Overstock...

2014 has been an amazing year for Bitcoin. I find it hard to understand how the author of this article could draw the opposite conclusion from the available facts.... nor do I get the hostility..

Oh well.. haters gonna hate...
