Nice! Really is good to see CNN mention bitcoin and in a good way as well. It's what we need to help bitcoin along to be honest and any good publicity is always great.

I'm pretty sure right now that Bitcoin will be the next world reserve currency.
I believe in 95% of daily news is conspiracy, and this fits my confirmation biased world view.
When CNN starts to mention it you know it's part of a conspiracy, at least that's what I believe.

I'm a little bit puzzeled if I should continue with bitcoin or choose another coin to invest/convert in.

Maybe I should start my own coin just to be sure... Wink

Whilst a lot of the news is propoganda in some form, I don't think that tweet by CNN is part of some sort of conspiracy, nor should you ditch your bitcoins any time soon.

CNN has been losing ground in the news world for years now so my guess is this is a desperate attempt to snag viewers out of bitcoinland and not much else. However, if doing so forces them to roll the BTC ticker in the faces of what's left of their audience then so be it. Grin

I'll take any mention of Bitcoin on any news or social media format right now.

Getting people to see and hear Bitcoin related news, and get them curious is the start of the beginning of the network effect.

Well, it is not necessarily the beginning, but it is definitely a part of it.
I still think crypto currencies/bitcoin are very new and have enormous growth potential.
At my work, a very technical environment, there are still very few people involved in cryptos.
Some of them never even heard of it!

It's even worse when you ask people on the street.

rofl.  doubt it.  'bitcoinland' ain't that big of an audience to snag.  

and if they really wanted bitcoinland, they should make more than a cnn money ticker thing.  they could do a whole lot of 'news', articles and stories from bitcoin/crypto.

edit:  but if you're in cynical mode, it's more cos i think cnn is accumulating btc.

Uh, this is big news? Mainstream news outlets have been talking about Bitcoin since 2013 unless I am mistaken. It has seen a lot of airtime and they have reported on it many times.
