The mainstream media debate about Bitcoin as a hit or failure approached live comedy this week after a "fight" broke out among guests on a CNBC sign.

In an exchange that put an end to an increasingly famous Fast Money segment of the network, the regular contributor and editor of RiskReversal.com Dan Nathan tells the Evercore ISI Rich Technician Ross to "piss off" after criticizing Bitcoin's performance. ]

Ross had previously argued that Bitcoin was a bad investment choice in recent months because of its nearly 50% drop this week. Ross would have given the example of Boeing's 200% earnings since 2016.

As Zerohedge notes, reproducing the unedited version of the exchange, Ross had not rated them annual Bitcoin earnings of over 1000% in 2017 alone. Nathan labeled him "glib" to ridicule him.

"You were wrong, so do not say I'm flippant," retorted Ross before Nathan weighed on the fateful remark:

"You do not know what I'm doing. I did, you do not know what my call is, so go ahead, seriously. "

The episode continues the somewhat bizarre approach of Fast Money. In December, the segment made the headlines to suddenly change allegiance to become extremely optimistic about Bitcoin Cash altcoin.

At the time, his dedicated Twitter account began publishing material that heavily criticized Bitcoin, saying to the rise of Bitcoin Cash instead.
