RE: Mainstream media taking a dump at EOS and blockchain - Stupidity on display (EOS=BitConnect)
No worries, I think this episode of LWT has been good for BTC and cryptos in general. I enjoy John Oliver beeing a descent host on various topics and also here the episode came out pretty well balanced.
I agree he was going a bit to hard on EOS, but first of all I believe that EOS doesnt suffer from such kind of "bad" publicity, chances are that people that know nothing about crypto/blockchain will as a result of this video go and check out as example EOS more exactly.
And second, in case you are anyway very upset about this episode, then you are acutally supporting the video by downvoting it. The reason is that the amount of likes AND dislikes is a significant factor in the youtube-algorithm which helps a video to be listed on the trending page (which I think is a good thing after all but might be the opposit of what you wanted to achieve).
From a relative point I'd say John Oliver is the best and greatest (because Reason Tv doesn't really count)
It's just the severe lack of research that sucked. He did some decent research on encryption (I liked a video to @abhicrypto) I mean Bitcoin Tx sucks. But what about Dash, PIVX, NEM or even that DAG - NANO which seems like it'd be better than IOTA but I haven't done enough research on it.
EOS is totally worth the billions it got. the tech is real. Few hours of Technical research should be enough to understand that. Video getting more publicity is good because more eyes on Blockchain and EOS. Dislike is good because Johnny needs to learn to do more research. My intent wasn't to make the video less viewed or anything. It's just calling out BS.
