CNN adds Bitcoin ticker

[bitwarrior]

This is good news. Btw the ticker is still there on http://money.cnn.com/data/markets . This will increase awareness and more exposure on bitcoins towards the masses.

Pretty awesome!
And i like their concept of using a new name for it i.e. XBT

If only they could do a proper show going a bit more in deep about why BTC is important it would be better.

What the fuck. They don't even offer SSL. I'm not going to use such a big website which doesn't even offer SSL in 2015.

XBT, BTC, Bits for Tits....I"ll take it!   

Just to have a Bitcoin Ticker on the main CNN Money Markets is a plus no matter which way you slice it.  Yes, Yahoo Finance, Google Finance, and Bloomberg had tickers before CNN, but just continuing positive coverage in the mainstream media is a boon.

And that CNN Inside Man was nice little doc wasn't it!  Need Morgan to do another one maybe in a year or so, when there's even more acceptance.

It's a great sign of some believe in Bitcoin from CNN.

Every step in the right direction counts and is important.

XBT is already being used by exchanges and other sites, it's not new.

I think more and more companies and services, etc, will use XBT in the future.

Meanwhile others like Wordpress remove it... why would they? jackasses.
