It's interesting to watch the video Guy Adami went to Time Square asking people about Bitcoin.

"Fan or foe?"
"I am a fan"
"Outstanding, love you"


Despite the title, overall it's an informative and objective article.

What's more interesting is people knew about it. Ever see that video of the guy asking if they knew the price of a gold coin? (And he'd give it to them if they guessed right.) NOBODY KNEW about it, and even worse - they didn't think gold was valuable at all. That was highly interesting to me.
