Did you know that Mt Gox lost all its customers bitcoins?

Also, Bitcoin is illegal in China now.

I also heard that it was a massive bubble and ponzi scheme and that stupid investors lost millions of dollars when it dropped in value by 99.9% recently.

ok please point me where you said bitcoin is illegal in china, but chinese are still buying bitcoins.  I know one chinese guy who is involved with bitcoin

There are some good news, some bad news.

Right events in China are messing everyone up.

Buuut there are also new investors and big players interested into bitcoin. Even banks are starting to consider bitcoin as transaction technology (good that it is decentralized so they won't be able to hold it in any way).

Future looks ok, people just need to calm down a bit.

It is not important what happened in lest month, it is important what happened in lest year.

I'm getting a bit bored of countless bad news stories regarding Bitcoin that are mostly pointless or just stating the obvious.

Has anyone got any good news ?

Tons of good news lately:

=== NODE IS OK! ==
This is just a natural reaction of your organism to the overhyped prices of December 2013

Boredom
Irritation
Nervousness
Nausea

Just like anything else, this is a game of the last man standing

"bad news is better than no news"

Not in the world of Cryptos.  If there is no news, then the market stays really flat with little or no volatility. It usually also starts to slowly increase in prices too. With bad news, it is usually followed by a sharp selloff that take sometimes weeks to recover from.

Blood sells, so bad news have always some press.
I remember Nasa whining: in the sixties, every thing we did was news, now we only have some press attention when things go wrong.

If BTC had a mascot for 2014 so far it would be the Bad News Bear.  Frankly, I don't remember when the last time there was actually good solid news.

I think a major factor though is that bad news stays fresher in the mind than good news. That is just human nature...

In a certain sense, all news are publicity, therefore can be considerer as good.
However, some of them, even if attract attention from people that don't use bitcoin, affect negatively the price.

Good or bad news. Is good news for bitcoin to spread awareness at this point.
Bitcoin has awareness.  Even my Dad had heard about it. Bitcoin now needs to get people interested in Bitcoin, and not just aware of it.

At badbitcoin.org we hear nothing BUT bad bitcoin news. But it's starting to improve. We don't give the scammers breathing space, and they aren't making much of a living nowadays.
The emergence of new scams is slowing.

When people have learned the pitfalls, and begin to follow best practice, then we can close our site. Until then, we're going to try and catch these schemes as they start, and by spreading the warnings, along with the rest of the Bitcoin Community we can starve them of a living.

We aren't just bad news, we are currently running a 'Get Sticky' Campaign to promote Bitcoin. You can download an A4 sheet of predesigned Bitcoin Stickers to annoy the institutions with.
Stick 'em on Cashpoints, Banks, Bus Stops etc - or design your own, but let's PROMOTE Bitcoin and get that logo known to everybody.

There is plenty of good news in bitcoin, you just have to look a little harder for it. As with all things, the bad events seem to get the majority of the headlines.

I don't care whether the news is good or bad. The most important aspect is that Bitcoin and the other crypto-currencies are getting some good amount of publicity, and that too for free.  Grin
Totally agree, I don't care the bad or good news, just want more good news for account publicity
