According to a running tally on the CoinDesk website, venture capital Bitcoin investments in May alone totaled $56 million, which was nearly as much as the 2014 total through the first four months, $57.24 million. And just today (Monday), Bitcoin security startup BitGo announced it had raised $12 million in Series A financing from Redpoint Ventures. That puts the year-to-date venture capital Bitcoin investment figure at $125.24 million. If investing in Bitcoin maintains the current pace, total investments will eclipse $250 million for the year. Nice article: They go on to point out that the numbers are not huge, but the pace is accelerating rapidly. :) Title: Re: [2014-06-17] Venture Capitalists Are Investing in Bitcoin at the Fastest Pace to Post by: Chef Ramsay on June 17, 2014, 09:26:39 PM Venture capitalists and accepting businesses are our best friends. :)

The best thing about this article is that the rate that investment is growing at is 300% YoY. This is huge and a lot of innovation should come of this.
