I have a few critiques regarding this article.
I don't think merchant adoption will hit 100k businesses by December 2014; the plateauing tail at the end of the graph says otherwise to me, but at least 60-70k seems reasonable to me. And I would like to see the investment trend stacked up against the pre-".com" bubble (i.e. 1997-1998) rather than 1995; in my eyes, bitcoin is not in its infancy anymore so it needs a more comparable fit to get a stronger feel for "historical" baseline growth.
Nonetheless, I agree with the general spirit of this article; the future for bitcoin is much brighter (in a not-so-crazy fervor sort of way) than it has ever been.

Big retailers accepting BTC. It remains to be seen whether they do that because they actually like bitcoin or want it to succeed, or they just want to hitch a ride on the media-bandwagon
Bitcoin price soaring everyday by almost 1%.. Its not far that the price will reach $1,000 dollar by the end of the year..
Hmm...It might be soaring for you, but the last 2 weeks for everyone else it has gone down roughly $30 dollars since 2 weeks ago..
Very good sign, the following few years should see the soar of bitcoin
This is pretty interesting. It is amazing that bitcoin is more popular than the original internet in terms of VC investment!
information gets around much quicker these days than the early days of the internet... perhaps because of the help from the internet itself.

Yeah, but dont forget that the can cool down just as fast.
Those regulations are coming in just the right time if you ask me, allowing speculators a bit less uncertinty of their investments,
so that mt.gox never happens again.
Generally investment does not slow down at a rapid pace unless there is some kind of shock to the economy or a shock to the sector that is being invested in.

I was not really aware that Dish is accepting bitcoin until this....Maybe just maybe I would think about getting Dish if the storms....
I am hoping by the end of the year here it bumps back up to over $1000 dollars and a lot of retail companies start getting interested...would be great to go to the store and just pay with Bitcoins...

Can't really compare internet with bitcoin as you can own bitcoin and can't own internet.
Haha. Tell that to the NSA.

I'm just excited for when Bitcoin actually becomes 1.0 instead of 0.9 =)
Well...the next version will be 0.10, not 1.0...
