Cool, I think Brian does a fantastic job of articulating bitcoin's long term potential
I am looking for the video link of the interview, anyone got it?

Coinbase lied when they said they have a license in California. I think this is a subject not Bitcoin at TV.... Smiley

Coinbase does have license in California and they said otherwise.So, they are not a legitimate exchange

I don't think they were so much lying but that people just misunderstood what they were saying. It appears that coinbase does not think they need any kind of license in CA so they are operating in CA (without a license).

What an awesome thing that Bitcoin exposure in the media isn't even such a big thing anymore! It's almost a daily occurrence that Bitcoin startups and new services appear on "regular" news channels, newspapers, etc.!

The more exposure, the better for BTC.

Exactly.  It is disappointing though how many states that are not able to operate in yet.  Still, this is good news for bitcoin.

Any reason why only certain states allow that? Is it because of different regulations?

Same things happens with weed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legality_of_cannabis_by_U.S._jurisdiction

Maybe USA is just too big and too diverse to offer 1 law for all, you'd have to look into the history of the different states.

they should say that they are not regulated in California Smiley

they are not regulated in various states. I think the TV time has better use than give a list of site where they are regulated and where they aren't, info that anyone interested can easily get by himself

Was expecting some BS like that since we heard from the regulators it would be a state by state process, we will probably have 5-10 states still messing about in 3 years time.

It is also a great deal, not that the exchange is born, but that the media is taking it a "little" more seriously.

I think this is the start of the narrative of "bitcoin is a joke and is for jokers" to "hey, this maybe might just be something someday".

Good news. I'm not that convinced with Coinbase, but the more Bloomberg talks about BTC, the better.
