I think the answer that it would jeopardize their source is a valid answer to that question.

Agree. Frankly, I think people who keep attacking CF for "not disclosing sources" are about as clueless as the Hashtards. In the U.S. at least, reporters have a long and storied history of keeping their sources secret and many reporters have gone to jail rather than disclose sources even when ordered to do so. A free press is pretty damn important to democracy. So wtf with all the "show me your sources" crap? Get the f*(Jk over yourselves.

I have no idea how CF gets its info, but I greatly respect a news organization that can get to the truth repeatedly, over and over again, long before anyone else. Not just with GAW but Mt Gox and other stories.

In general, news sources that have credibility when they say something without sources tend be have been around for more than 9 months, tend to be more than a few people, and tend not to go around calling people who disagree with them trolls.

They also tend to have the kind of security that makes it difficult to hack their website 5 times in 6 months.

The fact that he was right about the SEC means nothing because of this other nonsense?

I'm talking about the people who complained before the SEC was confirmed, when all we had was Coinfire's word. We still don't have the documents Coinfire promised to release in an "ongoing series of articles", Coinfire has reneged on agreements to share documents with other news organizations citing their "lawyers", when I pointed this out they called me a troll.
