Same press release as before, but Reuters is quite big:

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Working ok here. This is getting a fair amount of coverage, the yahoo finance article (same as here) was a surprise and Reuters is a lot of coverage. If this works out it will spread Bitcoin's roots much further and make it much more accessible. If the ATM's (Moneero call theirs a BTM) are affordable shops could end up installing them for the security of going cashless and fully automated accounting plus Moneero also seems to be handling whatever regulatory issues they may face in doing so.

Not so sure about big and trusted companies, they all started out small and had to build trust. Gox was probably the biggest and most trusted in the Bitcoin ecosystem and their withdrawal problems have stung a lot of people. Moneero seem to be working hard to get any regulatory issues nailed before moving with products and services and that's a lot of investment they have to get a return on.

gox is not a trusted company for me at least. background of gox is not so clear. And too many fraud happens on that site.
