The only incentive to write articles like this is to convince others to buy, consequently making more money yourself. This is a pitch, not a fairly supported argument.

Given that you're not the author and so not privy to their motives, I don't see your support for your assertion that personal profit is the only possible incentive to have written the article.

I mean, they are an investment firm, whose goal is to make money. Personal profit is literally their only motive.

Another thing to note here is that these firms can shill any coin they like without any market manipulation accusations from the SEC, were they to do this for any other asset.

And the fact that they publish thousands of opinions on thousands of assets with both buy and sell recomendations and have been doing so for decades.

You are hearing what you want to hear and you are dead wrong.

The incentive is to appear informed about an important trend in their industry. It's a pretty good analysis. Do you have a problem with a specific piece of his content?
The issue they have is that they weren't against bitcoin. Clearly their preconceived notions are preventing them from discussing and looking at it objectively.

Waiting for PragmaticPulp to join the conversation.....

Their asset class analysis has made them billions upon billions over decades but their issue is that they simply don't get what's going on here??
