Title: Marketwatch editorial: Here’s why you have to start taking bitcoin seriously Post by: ebliever on February 19, 2016, 07:02:34 PM http://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-why-you-have-to-start-taking-bitcoin-seriously-2016-02-19 (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-why-you-have-to-start-taking-bitcoin-seriously-2016-02-19)
Interesting opinion piece at Marketwatch on bitcoin. It mentions the hospital blackmail, but also the 2015 best-in-class performance of bitcoin. It mentions some of the advantages and use cases for bitcoin, while also acknowledging how criminals can use it. I do appreciate the author's challenging governmental controls and over-regulation to monitor and control people's financial activity independent of any evidence of illicit activity. |
