O'Reilly Media Unveils Blockchain Event, Announces Bitcoin Integration Nationwide
Dec 03, 2014 07:08 am
Since 1978, O'Reilly Media has been an active participant in the tech community, spreading innovation and knowledge through its books, research and annual events.
Today, the media company announced the latest addition to its conference lineup: Bitcoin & the Blockchain: An O'Reilly Radar Summit. Taking place this winter in San Francisco, the one-day event will give attendees an opportunity to learn about Bitcoin's significance and potential, and educate them on ways to leverage its tools, technologies and processes to expand and contribute to the ecosystem.
Bitcoin & the Blockchain not only marks O'Reilly's first event dedicated to digital currencies and the blockchain technology, but also the first time that O'Reilly will accept bitcoin as a payment method.
O'Reilly also announced plans to integrate bitcoin payments into its other US-based conferences and its online store starting in 2015. In the coming months, anyone with a Coinbase wallet will be able to use bitcoin to purchase books, research, videos and more.
Bitcoin & the Blockchain will take place on Jan. 27, 2015, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit the event registration page.

USD Wallets on Coinbase
Dec 01, 2014 03:57 pm
Today we're excited to launch USD Wallets, a new feature which allows users to store U.S. Dollar balances on Coinbase.
Instant buying and selling
Once you deposit USD into your new wallet, you no longer have to wait for traditional bank transfers to clear before your orders complete. Coinbase can process bitcoin purchases on-demand using funds from your USD Wallet.
No credit card required
Previously, the only way to instantly acquire bitcoin on Coinbase was to enable instant buy, which required adding a credit card. USD Wallets let you transfer U.S. Dollars to your Coinbase Account at your convenience. You can then use those funds to purchase bitcoin instantly from Coinbase. If you do not spend the funds, or if you receive the U.S. Dollar proceeds of a bitcoin sale into your USD Wallet, you can simply withdraw the funds back to your linked bank account whenever you wish. Coinbase will not charge you to send funds to and from your USD Wallet via ACH bank transfer in the U.S.
Availability
USD Wallets are available to Coinbase customers who have verified their identity in supported states within the US. If you do not see a USD Wallet in your account then you may be located outside of the states we currently support.
To start, the following 16 states are supported:
- Arkansas (AR)
- California (CA)
- Delaware (DE)
- Georgia (GA)
- Idaho (ID)
- Illinois (IL)
- Indiana (IN)
- Massachusetts (MA)
- Missouri (MO)
- Montana (MT)
- New Mexico (NM)
- Puerto Rico (PR)
- South Carolina (SC)
- Washington (WA)
- Wisconsin (WI)
- West Virginia (WV)
We are working hard to expand access to USD Wallets to residents of additional states in the near future. You can view our list of supported states here.
Try it
If you live in a supported state, your USD Wallet will be automatically enabled. Just sign in, make a deposit, and begin using your USD Wallet today!
