I've noticed the same thing and wondered how this technologically advanced country can be so close minded to new ideas and developments in that field. Helsingin Sanomat and Yle are basically telling people that bitcoin is bad and everyone related to it are criminals, and the general public believes every word these huge media companies tell them, without even thinking about having a critical look into what is said.

A couple years ago there was a study done that found 92% of Finns trust the Finnish media. But, most of the stories that come internationally are syndicated and translated. People in Finland also trust "experts" like financial managers and economists - no matter how often they get it all wrong. I was handed an article (not Finnish) the other day by a friend here that she used as an attack on blockchain and Bitcoin, yet it was so heavily flawed it was near useless - but it appeared in a big media outlet.
It really is discouraging to see people lead astray, when all you have to do is be at least a bit more critical and check the sources. I was just talking with my dad about how those who know how to play well in the media field, dictate was is the truth to most people. More often than not, the ones that are trying to bring to light issues that contradict the main media sources, are really bad at presenting their cases, and even though they are right, they are left unheard.
I instantly imagined this guy 😂
At least he’s wearing a suit and not a dirty t-shirt and Karjala lippis 😅
Maybe someone should tokenize Alko or recycling their bottles and the adoption that'll ensue will be something never before seen in the last decade of blockchain.
LOL
People using Bitcoin for criminal activity are gonna have a bad time!
Movies still potray Bitcoin as being untraceable, some young drug dealers will be in trouble 😂
