Thought it be good to start a thread collecting articles both singing the praises or disembowelling these new fangled crypto currencies. I'll start off with this hit piece by the 'tabloid' financial news service Business Insider: http://www.businessinsider.com.au/bitcoin-libertarian-paradise-would-be-hell-on-earth-2013-12 Edited spelling errors.

One of the top stories on news.com.au http://www.news.com.au/finance/busi...ked-for-bitcoins/story-fn5lic6c-1226784071411 Apparently all the bitcoin users who aren't drug dealers and hitmin are porn addicts

Those Bitcoin Wierdos Might Just Be Right. For those who don't know, the Spectator is a UK, Tory-centric printed publiction. James Delingpole writes for several newspapers and regularly takes a swipe at most greenist/leftist/warmist subjects. I found the comments interesting. I wouldn't have guessed that the Spectator's audience was quite so switched on to what's going on outside the MSM. Or, on reflection, maybe I shouldn't be at all surprised? http://www.spectator.co.uk/columnis...32/those-bitcoin-weirdos-might-just-be-right/
