As you know, the news about the BTC is very effective on the speculations and the prices.

So, what are your favorite reliable BTC news sources?

Thank you!

I like to read https://bitcoinmagazine.com/. Aaron van Wirdum writes pretty good articles. I also like to follow WhalePanda's medium (https://medium.com/@WhalePanda) for some great insight on what's happening with Bitcoin and specially to keep up to date with the scammers trying to hardfork it. He just released this pretty good article on segwit2x:

https://medium.com/@WhalePanda/segwit2x-the-broken-agreement-e9035a453c05

I dont follow anyone for the price particularly.

It is always good to use multiple sources. But to be honest, I do not have time to read tweets from the insiders, communicate with Devs on Slack etc. IMO there is a good time/benefit ratio if you use some feeds from various sources, e.g. the Android app Blockfolio has this functionality.

Aside from social media and blogs about btc and other altcoins I also have cointelegraph channel on my telegram app. I usually read significant news and reviews from them which I find interesting and useful.

For news Coindesk (https://www.coindesk.com/) is good for quick articles. Their website is decent but their mobile app suuuuuuuuuucks. It's awful. Don't even bother downloading the mobile app, it's nearly worthless.

For insight or opinions I go to the BTC Sessions (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChzLnWVsl3puKQwc5PoO6Zg) on YouTube.

Anyone from Coindesk here? Pay attention!

Thanks.

I don't have one specific news source I like the most. Frankly speaking, you shouldn't follow one source of news.
Instead focus on the main picture, check every bitcoin news site: coindesk, cointelgraph, reddit, bitcointalk, cryptocoinsnews, medium etc.
And even if you read the same news posted by different websites - you need to be careful, sometimes we have fake news epidemy and 1 uncertain rumour spreading like wildfire.

You can try coindesk and cointelegraph for the major stories. Some of the mainstream media have extensive coverage as well. If you go to Bloomberg or CNN an search for Bitcoin articles, you will find good ones there as well.

There are lots of newsletters about Bitcoins. On Social Media like Facebook - Twitter - Slack - Telegram and much more. And one of the most I've always looked at is Cointelegraph - See here at this link // https://www.facebook.com/cointelegraph/

It always contains news almost every day. And this is only true of their news. That's why I liked it

CoinDesk and bitcoinmagazine is my go-to for news sources and daily bits of everything about cryptocurrency in general. Also I am subscribed to a couple of people in Twitter that give fresh info about upcoming events related to the cryptocurrency world. Also forgot to mention CoinTelegraph which is good for mainstream media reports that involve bitcoin.

I dont have a favourite website to look for bitcoin news. I search and read 4-5 websites everyday because you find different news, different speculations, different opinions and you learn from all of it. I also watch some facebook and twitter personalities to see what their speculations and recommendations are.
It is wrong to have only 1 source where you watch every days because an information may be wrong, or there can be fake news. Always read all the informations that you can find and only after that you can make an opion about what is happening

Bitcoin magazine is one of the top reliable source but as for me when it comes to speculations and market charts I always look at coinmarketcap.com and the rest of the informations about bitcoins that I read is here in bitcointalk. It may sound biased but I prefer learning through threads here since I receive actual output from real people into bitcoin world.

I usually read coindesk, bitcoinmagazine, medium and steemit. I use multiple source so the opininon is not biased and it's good to have some good read in multiple source.

I personally check news on my blockfolio app, which encompasses Coindesk and cointelegraph mainly. I find that coindesk articles are easier to read than cointelegraph articles, but cointelegraph has a nice variety.

Anyways look for yourself - and don't stick to one single news source.

They can be biased and you could make wrong decisions off that. Keep that in mind.
