This is good for all cryptocurrency: http://www.cnet.com/news/bitcoin-gets-buy-in-from-newegg-the-tech-focused-retailer/

Aside from Dish Network (Satallite TV) now accepting Bitcoin by their customers to pay their monthly bills, Newegg.com just announced Bitcoin acceptance (hence the recent bump in BTC/USD).

Anything which gives cryptocurrency legitimacy to the layman is also directly good for all coins. :-)


Also, just curious what the recent explosion in Karma can be attributed to? I can tell there is a good community here and am happy to now be a part of it, but was there some press release announced or something which alerted more people to Karma? It makes sense that Karma would eventually increase in value, just trying to determine why yesterday was the day it did so.

Thanks!
