The actual title is link bait. On HN, people don't want to have to read through the whole article to reach a conclusion. In this case, it's perfectly valid to include the main point of the article - Bitcoin failed.

Do I sense another ulterior motive for you to force the title to change? I've definitely seen this behavior on Reddit.

It misrepresents the point of the actual author, the author focuses on everything other than the lack of transactions with crypto. The focus on the number was given by the submitter.

If the case is valid for the rule, motives or biases like mine, yours or anyone's are irrelevant.

It doesn't? The moral of the story is bitcoin hasn't been adopted as much as the bitcoin fanboys will scream.
