This Forbes article from 18 hours ago says
"The total value of all Bitcoins is currently about $5 billion...on par with a single mid-cap stock...so bitcoin circulation isn't worth watching..."

article title: Why Isn't Bitcoin Interesting To Leading Economists

they are completely wrong; I'm sure leading economists are interested in Twitter which just IPO'd.

in one day bitcoin can reach half of Twitters market cap. That is not nothing.

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

its like these guys start to write 24-48 hours before and then don't update their easily updatable numbers/facts right before publishing

probably the site having to 'approve' it maybe? Wink
