“Satoshi Nakamoto” has offered up his cryptographic key as proof. The creator of the bitcoin virtual currency, who has long been known by the pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto”, has come out of the shadows. His name is Craig Wright. Wright, an Australian entrepreneur, had previously been identified by Wired and Gizmodo, but their stories were met with some skepticism, as previous attempts at unmasking Nakamoto had not gone so well. Now Wright has gone to the BBC, the Economist and GQ with proof that he says ties him to the identity of Nakamoto: He signed an encrypted message with the cryptographic key that was associated with the first bitcoin transaction. http://fortune.com/2016/05/02/bitcoin-satoshi-wright/ |

According to latest report from Coin ATM Radar, a bitcoin ATM machine has been installed in Dominican Republic in the city of Santo Domingo. This machine, perhaps the first in dominion Republic, is a two-way Lamassu bitcoin ATM. However, it currently operates only for purchasing bitcoins. It accepts Dominican Peso (DOP) and sends bitcoins to a user’s wallet. Based in Manchester, New Hampshire, Lamassu is one of the first companies to create Bitcoin ATMs. The company, cofounded by brothers Josh and Zach Harvey, aims to harness the technological supremacy of cryptocurrencies and provide this same experience to those who’ve never had access to basic financial services in the past. http://www.econotimes.com/Dominican-Republic-Gets-Its-First-Bitcoin-ATM-198073 |

The dollar has weakened against its counterparts for yet another day, as traders reacted to downbeat US building permits and housing starts data. US reports have been mostly weaker than expected so investors might be pricing in a dovish rhetoric from the FOMC next week. Meanwhile, the rally in commodities has supported bitcoin price, with market participants flocking to higher yields. US oil supply has increased by 3.1 million barrels according to the API while the end of the oil strike in Kuwait means a return to production. Even so, crude oil has managed to hold on to its current levels, keeping risk appetite in play in the financial markets. http://www.newsbtc.com/2016/04/20/bitcoin-price-technical-analysis-04202016-upside-breakout-next/ |

Forget your BTC and see it again in 2 years!!!
if you can wait for two years more then just wait until the next halving in 2020, the value should skyrocket due to better adoption by that time great idea oke let's create new paper wallet then saving some amount per week/month and waiting 2020, hope i can reach 50BTC at 2020  50 bitcoins is a good ambition.

One of the world’s largest bitcoin exchanges is reportedly close to announcing a new deal with the Luxembourg government that would enable it to launch regulated and licensed services across Europe. According to sources, Bitstamp may have secured a payment institution (PI) or electronic money institution (EMI) license from Luxembourg regulators, a move that the company has reportedly said would allow it to become "the first regulated and licensed bitcoin exchange for all 28 countries in the EU". http://www.coindesk.com/bitstamp-europe-license-luxembourg/ |

Not long ago, a Beijing-based mining giant known by the name of Bitmain has reportedly invested a total of $1.6 million in BitKan, a company known for their data and trading services that works via Bitcoin. At this moment in time, Bitmain represents the sole investor present in the Series A funding round, following the angel round investment that the company had received last year, in November. It is important to point out the fact that initially, BitKan served as a Bitcoin news provider that also allowed traders to either buy or sell bitcoin via its partner exchanges. Later on, the company took things to the next level and therefore started to offer OTC Bitcoin trading services. http://themerkle.com/chinese-mining-giant-bitmain-invests-1-6-million-into-bitkan/ |

internet users covering almost all of humanity. if 25% of Internet users use bitcoin., would be a lot of users who have used bitcoin.
but the reality is still a bit of bitcoin existing users
Well only the ones who are interested in having an online jobs the ones who are using bitcoin and most internet user are only using the internet to brag about themselves on FB and such social media sites. 50% of internet uer know about trading forex, 30% of them use paypal, and 25% of them know and use bitcoin just my opinion no more |

Technology is revolutionising our lives every day. Sometimes, we forget how far we’ve come. Not just in effectiveness, but also in efficiency. It’s been said before; we’re entering a new age, the digital revolution. And, just like the industrial revolution, the digital revolution will make our lives simpler and safer. One way we have done this is through robotics and automation. Instead of running a business, entrepreneurs now have the option to fully automate operations. http://www.moneymorning.com.au/20160419/why-blockchain-could-make-banking-transactions-obsolete.html |

May be I can quit my job after 5 years looking at the price of bitcoin by that time, but at a moment I would love to continue with my full time job and keep bitcoin as an extra.
today people use bitcoin as side job, part time, extra salary etc. im sure in future maybe arround next 5year, bitcoin will be booming and more people use bitcoin as full job, then very difficult to earn bitcoin. |

I think, what others already said is investing in both because if you invest in them both you can make a lot of profit.
One is for a relative short period and the other for a long period(most likely the gold one is for a long term).
so wich will you choose for short and long term..? i think both of them is for long term, bitcoin in future have potentially reach $1000 again and of course buy bitcoin today is best choice because I believe the future of bitcoin will be very beautiful. bitcoin evolving future course bitcoin will have a better state than it is today. i think long term is big risk, in future bitcoin can reach $10k and have chance too to reach $1. for me better to invest at middle time, if bitcoin price rise sell it |

Technical Indicators Signals The 100 SMA is still above the longer-term 200 SMA so the path of least resistance is to the upside. In addition, the gap between the moving averages seems to be widening, indicating stronger bullish momentum. Meanwhile, stochastic has turned higher even without reaching the oversold region. This could be indicative of a return in buying pressure, possibly allowing bitcoin price to make another attempt at breaking past the wedge resistance around $435. Also, RSI appears to be moving back up but is currently on middle ground. This could be a sign that the consolidation might simply carry on, keeping bitcoin price safely inside the wedge formation. http://www.newsbtc.com/2016/04/19/bitcoin-price-technical-analysis-04192016-still-stuck-wedge/ |
