The Week In Bitcoin - Mar 21 through Mar 27, 2011.

Sunday, Mar 27th, 2011



Saturday, Mar 26th, 2011

  • New sites and other content:
    Bitcoin wiki article: Myths
    The recent influx of new visitors from the slashdotting renewed the need for an update to the Myths article in the Wiki.  Here’s an example:
    Myth: Early adopters are unfairly rewarded.
    The vast majority of the 21 million Bitcoins still have not been distributed. By starting to mine or acquire Bitcoins today, you too can become an early adopter.
    - http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Myths
  • s3052’s Technical Analysis
    Long Term:
    “The decline from the 1.1 $ high looks only corrective (a-b-c). This is a good argument for the longterm bulls.”
    Short Term:
    “Next resistances are $0.90 (very weak), $0.95 (strong), $1.00 (medium), $1.10 (strong).”
    - http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?p=4497563#post4497563
  • “Quick alert” (mid-day)
    “Today, the 2 months downtrend line has been broken to the upside.”
    - http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1493.msg71455#msg71455
  • BTCMine - offers incentive to miners, 5 BTC bonus to miner responsible for solving every 5th block:
    - http://twitter.com/#!/btcmine/status/50920930322546688

  • s3052 describes “curve filling” and why the jump up in the USD/BTC market exchange rate was no big deal.
    http://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4795.msg70824#msg70824
  • Press: Mentions in HackerNews, Reddit, Slashdot, DailyPaul, and more.
    Bitcoin.org website “slashdotted”, meaning it was not able to keep up with the amount of traffic. Traffic to the homepage was directed to the Bitcoin wiki.

Any chance to syndicate these posts via a blog? I saw the twitter account, but I don't think this is the same content your publish here, right?
I'm super interested to get a weekly report via RSS.

Please do not pm me, use ron@bitcoin.org.il instead

The Twitter feed will have *some* stores that go into making the daily, as well as a summary post for each day.

  I'm super interested to get a weekly report via RSS.

Thanks again for these posts!  I've been out of the loop for just over a week and this was a great way to get caught up on recent happenings.
