Gold Prospecting With a Sluice Box

I got a chance to go see the Yankee Fork gold dredge this fall when I was working in Idaho. It was powered by two 350 horse Ingersoll-Rand, 7 cylinder diesel engines, burning 400 to 500 gallons of fuel a day. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

The picture of the old gold dredge is there because I like it.
There is a sort of sluice box inside it.

Personally I am not sure about the Bitcoin. It was almost a Tulip thing for a while, then it was like someone had hit it with Roundup.

Now it seems like it is germinating anew with some big$$ fertilizing it.

It appears as if the big banks are buying in, here are a few - Goldman Sachs, IDG Capital Partners, Breyer Capital, Accel Partners, General Catalyst Partners, Oak Investment Partners, Fenway Summer, Digital Currency Group, and Pantera Capital -  do they want to control it? YOU BET!

Anyway read the Circle Blog. They are a Bitcoin service provider, getting in at the root level to start charging fees (just like the big banks) for making it easier for yu to use your Bitcoins.

Tell me what you think.

Here is the blog link - The Circle Blog:
