Bitcoin Gets Venture Funding

Silicon Valley-based accelerator Boost VC is investing up to $350 000 on Bitcoin startups.   This is certainly great news for us Bitcoin promoters.   “We are especially interested in startups that make it easier to actually spend Bitcoin currency,” Boost VC Founder Alan Draper says.   This will be exactly what Bitcoin needs!  More consumers to adopt Bitcoins rather than we Geeks mining and playing around with it as a virtual currency.   Now a respectable VC is putting in real money into our virtual currency to make it adoptable in the real world!

  1. Hello,

    Nice to meet you! I was checking out your site and I noticed that you write some really cool articles on bitcoin. I run a bitcoin marketplace called Coingig.com where users can come and buy or sell their products for bitcoin. We are about a month old but we are growing very fast and gaining a big user base. We wanted to ask you if are able to write a review about our site and in return we will write a post on our popular coingig blog about your site as well.

    I look forward to hearing back and working together!

    I will be at the Bitcoin Conference as well so it would be cool to make new friends :)
