Not a bad payday at all
Considering I use it to check my wallet balances and other things like stats can see why people see its value.

100% Positive EBAY Feedback Since 2001
Early days...the ~$250 Million invested in BTC during 2014 is just the tip of the iceberg.  Internet-specific companies raised $7.1 BILLION in 2013...the software industry saw an additional $11 Billion invested in 2013...and that was only 37% of all VC last year...

In the latest move, Blockchain, a Bitcoin wallet provider and software developer, is expected to announce on Tuesday that it has closed a roughly $30.5 million fund-raising round, led by Lightspeed Venture Partners and Wicklow Capital. The investment, raised from Blockchain’s first round of outside financing, is one of the biggest in the digital currency industry to date.

 Shocked Shocked

Another hugely successful round of funding for one of the primary players in the bitcoin economy? We must be overdue for another major price drop!

That's just what I was thinking!   Every piece of substantially good news seems to coincide with more downward movement in the price!    Somebody is buying all those cheap coins..
