Bitcoin's Five (Big) Advantages Over Gold

By Michael A. Robinson, Defense + Tech Specialist, Money Morning • @Robinson_STI - December 20, 2013

I strongly believe that everyone should own some physical gold. It's been the store of value, and the preferred method of asset protection for more than 5,000 years. It's irreplaceable.

You see, most of the people buying bitcoin are interested in the explosive growth potential the new "currency" offers, as more and more retailers, CEOs, and governments embrace it.

By Kyle Anderson, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @KyleAndersonMM - November 27, 2013

You can use it to pay your way to the University of Nicosia in Cypress. You can even use it to buy a seat on a space flight aboard Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic.

Why Virtual Currency Is Here to Stay - Bitcoin or No Bitcoin

By David Zeiler, Associate Editor, Money Morning • @DavidGZeiler - November 22, 2013

By now you've probably heard of the digital currency Bitcoin, but it's not as new as you might think. Virtual currencies have been around for more than 20 years, and Bitcoin is far from the only example. Today there are more than ever - at least 80.
