Development is completed. Mainly just a group of people who like to write, and wouldn't mind pitching in a couple times a week with a new article.

The site looks nice.

However, I noticed tremendous plagiarism in your articles without properly crediting sources. One such example is this article entitled "Italian Central Bank: No AML Requirement for Bitcoin Exchanges" (http://cryptohoot.com/italian-central-bank-no-aml-requirement-for-bitcoin-exchanges/) which copied the writing progression and structure of Coindesk's "Italian Central Bank: No AML Requirement for Bitcoin Exchanges" (http://www.coindesk.com/italian-central-bank-no-aml-requirement-bitcoin-exchanges/). Notice the same exact title. The content is also nearly identical with minor wording changes.

This is very questionable journalism, and your site loses reputation instantly. If it's not a new article, it may be better to just write your own summary in your own words and then redirect readers to the actual article via a link. I recommend all articles be reviewed before they go live.
