Now that Silk Road has closed without any discernible damage to Bitcoin's value, maybe we can accept it's here to stay.

Quote
You can't kill Bitcoin. It will not die. The Silk Road shutdown is the second event to challenge its stability and it’s come through with barely a scratch. And, despite the libertarian beliefs of many of its advocates, in part that’s due to Bitcoin going legit in the eyes of the law.

lets hope other media outlets have this mindset  Grin

The block chain is the main innovation of Bitcoin. It is the first distributed timestamping system.

I doubt so, Silkroad is only one of the reasons against the use of Bitcoin, money laundering is also of major concern
