I’ve been getting a lot of attention lately thanks to a certain little black box I recently received. This isn’t my first rodeo and I’m used to getting attention from time to time – what I’m not used to is doing interviews, and there have been quite a few lately. The first one to air [...]
These Sunday Morning G+ hangouts are getting me out of bed waaaay too early – they’re starting to feel like being dragged to church as a child. That said, I will be there at 9:00AM Pacific time and this time in addition to the standard Q&A I’ve also got an ASIC to show off. I [...]
Well everyone, it’s been a long hard road to this point but I can finally officially say without a shadow of a doubt that the Butterfly Labs ASIC miners exist. I know this because I’ve got one sitting next to my laptop happily hashing away as I type these words.
There’s been some drama recently over the removal of a few names from the list of potential interviewees posted at bitcoin.org. Despite being some of Bitcoin’s biggest proponents, Roger Ver and Jon Matonis are apparently too extreme to represent our fledgling currency to the media. But this latest act is just a symptom of a [...]
Good morning everybody! Why the hell am I up before the double-digits on a perfectly good weekend, you ask? Why, because I’ve got a Bitcoin Google+ Hangout to go to. There are about 20 of us signed up so far, but if you’re interested it’s open to the public. I’ll be there asking and answering [...]
CNBC.com Senior Writer Jeff Cox recently wrote a scathing article entitled “Bitcoin Bubble: How ‘Geeks’ Sent Prices Parabolic” that attracted quite a few anti-Bitcoin remarks in the comments and had no shortage of such remarks in the article itself. Of course, like most hyperbolic bile-filled reviews on this topic, he didn’t even bother to do [...]
Bitcoin, you’ve gotta stop doing this to me, I’m running out of pictures of Dr. Evil! With Bitcoin prices at $184 and new record highs toying with the idea of $200 Bitcoin has passed another important mark: Two billion dollar market cap.
Or, y’know, my dorky voice talking with an old friend about nerdy stuff. You could describe it that way too… I’ve been so busy with all the drama and illness lately that I damn near forgot to mention my latest project – a podcast called Codex Nerdicus. My old friend Dave Wolfe and I have had [...]
Take note of the pluralization of “Bitcoins” in the title: This is not a repeat. This is also not a crash. In my previous article, Bitcoin price had just topped $90 which put its total market cap solidly over a billion dollars. Today, for the first time ever, Bitcoin’s unit price has topped $100.
As the price of Bitcoin peeked its head over $90 this morning, we reached a historic milestone: Bitcoin is worth a billion dollars. I’m talking about Bitcoin as a whole here. The market cap (price times number of coins in existence) as I’m writing this is at $1,035,238,115, just over a billion (or as my [...]
