I guess someone spend some time and learned about the advantages and also 'magic' of Bitcoin and decided to present an actually positive review. Maybe they're just heavily invested though and are not as altruistic, as we might think Wink

I should have gotten into Bitcoin back in 1992...

I think the UK media are all well invested in BTC this isnt the first pump we've had but its likely the best report so far. How to get around the corrupt banking is the tricky part.

What time did it show on TV?

{ Imagine a sequence of bits generated from the first decimal place of the square roots of whole integers that are irrational numbers. If the decimal falls between 0 and 5, it's considered bit 0, and if it falls between 5 and 10, it's considered bit 1. This sequence from a simple integer count of contiguous irrationals and their logical decimal expansion of the first decimal place is called the 'main irrational stream.' Our goal is to design a physical and optical computing system system that can detect when this stream starts matching a specific pattern of a given size of bits. bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=166760.0 } Satoshi did use a friend class in C++ and put a comment on the code saying: "This is why people hate C++".

Wow, I'm actually quite shocked that the tone of that video clip was overall positive. Shocked

Usually they'd fixate on Shrem, Silk Road, Gox, etc...but they actually focused on the positives and the potential.

The audience must have been of something like 600,000.

That's because UK gov's stance on bitcoin is rather positive:

Media approach to BTC was pretty neutral at the beginning, now it seems to be getting more positive.

Banks were already nervous, but now even start to admit it. That's an insane accomplishement in just 5 years time.

- You can figure out what will happen, not when /Warren Buffett
- Pay any Bitcoin address privately with a little help of Monero.
