New York state’s financial regulator is about to issue "bitlicenses" to Coinbase and Ripple Labs, allowing the San Francisco-based bitcoin companies to operate in the state. The New York State Department of Financial Services recently received applications from both companies, according to the regulator’s weekly report in late April. Now, an anonymous source close to the matter confirmed to Reuters that the requests will be approved, though the source did not say when the approvals would be announced. http://www.ibtimes.com/bitcoin-services-may-expand-new-york-poised-licenses-coinbase-ripple-2364909

BitLox is a new entrant into the physical Bitcoin wallet market. BitLox Creator Dana Coe sent us a wallet to test and review, and also answered some questions about BitLox, its development, and more. One of the first things you will notice about BitLox is it uses an e-ink screen which both saves power and makes reading it easier in many different lighting situations. The screen is one of many features which make it a unique entrant into the market. http://bitcoinist.net/interview-bitlox-dana-coe/

The most benefit that I'm feel is I can send money to my family on Australia with the most cheap fee compare when I'm using western union Also when my sister send money to another country, bitcoin provide faster payment speed
bitcoin is best payment procesor to send and receive money from other country, the fee is very cheap if we compare it with other payment processor like paypal, western union etc.

On Monday, Australian entrepreneur Craig Wright announced that he was the elusive creator of Bitcoin. His proclamation was immediately met with an avalanche of suspicion, with one prominent cryptography expert describing it as “flimflam and hokum”. Now, through a spokesman, Wright has promised that further proof for his claims is coming. The spokesman told the BBC that Wright would “move a coin from an early block” of Bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto’s “in the coming days”. The spokesman didn’t provide a more specific timeline. http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2016/05/craig-wright-claims-he-will-move-satoshi-nakamotos-bitcoin-in-the-coming-days/the price will be fail

I have 3 wallets at the moment, where I try to move around what little BTC I have. It's a good practice to scatter your BTC to minimize risk of losing everything all at once.
It's a good idea, now im use some wallet too, coinbase + xapo is my daily wallet for micropayment, and im use paper wallet for hold some bitcoin.

I am using blockchain for storing also i want to try some wallets cause still i can't choose what is better. But i think that blockchain is more relaible anyway.
I think if you're feeling safe in blockchain. you do not need to find another wallet? What for ? while you're feeling safe in blockchain? I've been in blockchain. since first joining in bitcoin I think blockchain is secured site for storing many bitcoin but if i have a chance that i can have 1000 bitcoin i hide it to the phtsical waet so that more security but if have only 1 bitcoin i store only in blockchain wallet. it's depend about your security setting, i have bad experience with blockchain, im use same password with my email address and i lost arround 3btc. now im use xapo 3rd wallet with 2fa force enabled...

National Bitcoin ATM (automated teller machine) network Coinsource (Clark, Sharp, and Reynolds, LLC, DBA CoinSource) just announced its largest installation yet by adding seven new machines in the Los Angeles area and two more in Las Vegas. According to the company this makes Coinsource the largest bitcoin ATM provider on the West Coast with 16 installations in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and San Diego. This installation brings the total number of ATMs operated by Coinsource up to 30 across five states. Bitcoin ATMs provide a different way for people to obtain and trade in bitcoins while on the road in a manner that is similar to visiting a banking ATM. While bitcoins are already born-digital and can be bought from services on mobile phones, an ATM makes it easy to exchange bills on hand for bitcoins and vice versa. http://siliconangle.com/blog/2016/05/03/coinsource-adds-9-new-bitcoin-atms-in-los-angeles-and-las-vegas/

if you only plan on paying for stuff online, shopping with paypal would be the better option for you. but if you are expecting to receive and send payments then i recommend bitcoin. because paypal just keeps limiting my accounts whenever i receive money. Only two of my friends use PayPal for selling staff on ebay and both of their accounts were frozen for about 6 months. Later they have unlocked them, but so much time was wasted and their money was frozen for soo long. It is a disaster. Hope that more and more stores will accept bitcoin for buying and selling. If bitcoin brings trading freedom, than I am two thumbs up for bitcoin. in bitcoin wallet no people can frozen your account, no people can frozen your money, and no people can touch your bitcoin bitcoin is the best choice

i think now is best time to quit trading. because if i see the chart if btc prize in several months, the price is stable the stable price with small spread is good too for short trader and long trader. for short trader he can buying at daily low rate and sell at daily high rate. for long trader if the price stable with slow pump it's very good chart to keep hold, because his bitcoin growing some precentage perday. The gold rule never invest more then can afford to loose the thing is we are atracted to try altcoins dreaming to multiply our bitcoins faster. of course if you are pro trader, and know when the perfect time to buying/invest your bitcoin, you will know altcoin is best way to multiple your money. True , right now I bought Gamebet coins for 900 sat each , and I am damn sure I will make profit in near future , its all about timing , I am not saying we can't loose , ofc sometimes we do loose , but we must know the tactics to recover from it , Lend it and be happy. i wouldnt sell bitcoin now.
I would say , very good choice . It will go up , so hold your bitcoin. my friend buying gamebet at ICO price arround 1200satosi then selling his GBT at arround 2500sat (at yobit) and now he can buy back a lot GBT but sometimes we can wrong and lose some btc, i lose arround 0.8btc at Reddcoin and i m waiting price down to 5sat then buy back

Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are characterized by their anonymity, with neither payers nor payees required to identify themselves and the system open for anybody to use. Regulators believe this makes them attractive to criminals. "The Commission proposes to bring virtual currency exchange platforms under the scope of the anti-money laundering directive, so that these platforms have to apply customer due-diligence controls when exchanging virtual for real currencies, ending the anonymity associated with such exchanges," the European Commission said in a news release in February. http://www.cnbc.com/2016/05/02/will-terror-attacks-end-bitcoin-free-for-all-in-europe.html

I am probably going to sell now since the price has risen by quite a lot in just 5-8 hours since the last time I check preev.com May is looking up if you have some bitcoin stash away somewhere I think the price is not currently classified as a high price. you should be more patient at least until halving come. it might be more profitable each people says halving will make bitcoin rise again, but in fact we know last halving not make bitcoin rise you can read the grapic of price at coinmarketcap. AFAIK, price increase on halving is just another theory that most of us believe. As long as it didn't hurt anybody then it's good to believe that. IMO, it will rise a few months after halving. I'm holding as much as i can for price increase. whales make propaganda "rise after/before halving" just make more people invest at bitcoin, or whales just want to sell his bitcoin after his target reached, he will dump bitcoin at low dips maybe back to $200
