Meanwhile, in Bitcoin land: Actual daily usage remains flat, with little sustained growth this year (in January it peaked at 115K/day transactions, and now stands at 122K/day transactions).
In a notable if tardy sign of Valley skepticism, TechCrunch, usually a reliable booster of Bitcoin, just put up a trollish "Breaking News From Bitcoin" leading to... tumbleweeds. Welcome to the party, TechCrunch, better late than never:
- 2013: If Bitcoin is Such a Revolutionary Virtual Currency, How Come Few Apparently Use it As, You Know, Currency?
- 2014: Despite Little Growth in Bitcoin Usage, Leading VC Marc Andreessen Still Bullish on Virtual Currency
- 2015 (April): Bitcoin Still Used Less Than Linden Dollars (Despite Years of Hype & $400 Million+ VC Funding)
