Speaking of that community, the world of Bitcoiners does indeed have an interesting edge to it: There’s an underground vibe that seems like it would contrast with the more
traditional East Coast prep style of the Winklevosses. In our phone call, Cameron and Tyler said that they’re intrigued by the current feel of the Bitcoin space — and its
potential for becoming a bit more structured in the coming years.
“We’re definitely pretty fascinated by it. The classic issue with Bitcoin is that it’s very early days,” Tyler said. “The entrepreneurs in the space are very impressive, but it takes really two areas of expertise: One is technology, and the second is understanding
money services and regulation and all those things that are important for
sustainability. Most entrepreneurs and companies we see in the space have the tech down, and they’re super strong there, but in terms of being buttoned up and looking like an average bank, it’s hard to couple both of them together. We think that BitInstant and Charlie do a fantastic job of doing both.”

Natürlich
"This marks the third big-name funding news for Bitcoin startups in just a few days" aber der zweitgrößte, Europa based exchange wird eingeknastet, die Nummer 1 in Japan verklagt & beschlagnamt, und jetzt kommen die da mit frischem Geld rüber und neuen pretty fascinated und very excitet Investments.
Bollocks!
