I've found quite a few links on Googling.<br/></div><br/>None of which are considered credible sources on Wikipedia. ronpaul.com is about as good as it gets, and that still is just an ordinary blog entry from a site participant than something that is a credible independent source.<br/><br/>Slashdot in particular was something generated by fans of Bitcoins and was talked about extensive on this forum before it was even posted. Not that it was something bad for Slashdot, but that isn't how Wikipedia works. Essentially Bitcoins still hasn't become a part of the larger world culture yet.<br/><br/>The purpose of this work for credible sources of information and insistence on reliable 3rd party accounts is in part to keep people like "UFO Researchers" and others with fringe theories from taking over Wikipedia. Anybody can come up with some theory that may seem credible, but nobody is really taking seriously. You need to demonstrate that others outside of your immediate community at least consider the concept to be credible and at least worth criticism. None of this is happening with Bitcoins at the moment.</div> text/html
