Have gotten to the point when I come across a bitcoin article in one of the business magazines or papers I skim read them.
Quite often its the same storyline and points,showing they did little investigating to fill their article space. Its usually negative and points to issues that are for sure bad but rarely reinforce the positive.
For this article it reads similar besides the mention at the end about different technology. So I was not to impressed with the article.

I'll say one thing for all these anonymous coins, they certainly make exit scams and the subsequent cashing out a wonderful breeze. I'm sure we'll be seeing more of that. At the same time as far as I can tell Bitcoin's traceability hasn't helped anyone who's been scammed.

i have recently just read the article and indeed yes since satoshi nakamoto create the first cryptocurrency bitcoin has grow with only few cents and currently above $600 and as this article said too that to invest at cryptocurrency knowledge is necessary to choose the right coin because if you don't have it there are a lot of scam coin out there and you could be trapped and losing all your money and overall invest at cryptocurrency could be very profit but if you were wrong step you could lost all your money

I am just glad that we are seeing a shift in thinking lately, regarding anonymity and pseudo anonymity. People who takes the time to do some proper research, do not tie Bitcoins to all the < Dark > things out there now, and actually see that there are other anonymous coins out there, that are better suited to these criminal practices under the blanket of full anonymity. < Well they seem to think it is > Coins like Monero & Dash etc.

There are hope for these journalists after all. ^smile^

the article was mainly focused on the anonymity and the newly widespread interest in the anonymous coins but it was a good article all in all so thanks for sharing.

it is always good to see bitcoin being mentioned in a positive article on these types of news sites.

Yes I agree that crypto currency as a technology and particularly the bitcoin is still undervalued as compared to its potential so naturally it is best time to invest in it with balanced risk method (acquiring certain amount during certain interval of time). It will take this decade to settle on international level where the factors of user base, government approach and initial issues are concerned so it is good deal for those who find themselves early adapters.

Very nice article, though I can't stand Huffington Post. Any mention of bitcoin in the media is a good one. There's no such thing as bad publicity, as it plants the seed if nothing else.   Money of the internet...yeah, sorta.

Bazinga!
it was a good article but i don't need an article to tell me it is a time to invest, i know that already and i have been investing as much as i could afford in past year before anybody were publicly saying it is a good time.

It's a very informative article, i do agree that bitcoin had came from bottom to the top, and for the future crypto currencies will be the good option to do transaction and the development of crypto currencies is so fast,  now it's up to us to keep them alives and useful

You walk into a casino with $100 which you change into chips. You play the slots for a while, then win or lose; you cash out and get a new set of dollar bills which are not related to the ones you entered with.
This may turn out to be true for depositing and cashing out from bitcoin casino sites but this is not the true way how crypto transactions were anonymous.
your right mate there are many factors that come into play, network traffic etc but i think the writer as he seams new to cryptocurrencies was trying to put it in a sort of "Laymen's term" type of explanation, trying to simplify it, he may of over simplified but to a new audience just dipping their toes in the ocean of digital currencies i think it's the best approach Smiley baby steps they didn't catch on as quick as we did  Wink

I agreed with the article but that is so very risky in this referred into the new coin like declouds is a piece of the shit project. for another reputable coin I did it for a long time ago and may this article is so late for bitcoiners. Grin
Yeah it's most defiantly written by new blood..but that's not a bad thing is it!
