Bitcoin and Altcoin information resources
   

    Having been involved in crypto for a few years i forget how tough it is to break into the field when it is so filled with iformation. I chat with many crypto users and often am surprised when they have missed some recent big news. Even more common is newcomers who have missed some of the histroy of the cryptocoi market and changes over the last few years. Many times i am asked for links to where i find this information. I put together a list of common information resources i use to try and stay up to date with crypto news. Things change so rapidly in crypto, each day presents new opportunity. The opportunities are often very short in time span, staying current is vital.

This is by no means a total list of all the resources available. These are the most common links i use daily to stay up to date.

I usually skim first 3 pages of the alt-coin forum a few times daily at least. This is where much of of news hits first.

The news and market:

altcoin forum  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0

asic group buys for breaking development news on asic products: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=137.0

check the cryptonerd blog for breaking news:    http://cryptonerd.co/

the genisis block has good resources and info: http://thegenesisblock.com/

check the hobomajesti  site for breaking news and hobodamus: http://hobo.majesti.co/hobodamus.html

Cryptsy is the place to trade, also a chatbox there. Sometimes coins are released in the chat or others link important things first in the cryptsy chat. https://www.cryptsy.com

check the CloudHash Bitcoin mining market at CEX.IO : http://goo.gl/ibAKlx

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

I would add mcxNOW (https://mcxnow.com/exchange/MCX) as a decent trollbox to check out.  The site itself has blazing fast responsiveness.  No fiat - a bug or a feature, depending on your preference.
