Just over a year ago, I started NEWSBTC.com will the sole goal of reporting bitcoin-related news. Over the past year, this hobby has brought me many friends and a unique opportunity to connect with some really smart, awesome people.
As they say, all good things come to an end. It is with a heavy heart that I announce I will be shutting down the website at the end of the month.
My reason is simple: it’s simply too much for me to handle at this point in time. Between my day job and this site, I’ve been spending 70-80 hours per week (that’s a conservative estimate) in front of a computer screen.
I’m almost a robot at this point, and seek desperately to change that.
Moving forward, I hope to have more time to do things I love, like get back in the cockpit of a Cessna and finish off my private pilot’s license. There are more things I’d like to do, of course, but I won’t take up your time with that!
I’ve also been faced with the fact that there are other bitcoin news sites with teams of writers and offices that simply did reporting better than I did. I’m not ashamed to admit that, nor am I bitter. If it’s good for the community, consider me grateful.
With that, I’d like to thank the few readers I had pop by every day and every week. Without your continued support, I would have never had the motivation to keep the site going as long as it has.
Here’s to the bitcoin community, which continues growing rapidly every day!

Bon Voyage, dude. This is my first comment here and I’m sad to say goodbye to a decent reporter.

Hello Eric, Thank you so much for all your effort. I’ve subscribed your articles everyday for a longtime though, It’s my first comment in this website. I apologize. NEWSBTC was amazingly fast and precise news media in bitcoin community. you’ve done a awesome job with busy daily schedule. I understand your reason. Thank you so much and I wish you to stay in happiness:)
All the best Eric. Good Luck on your endeavors and thanks for the news site!
good luck bro.
Noo! I’ve been a fan since the FB likes were in the single digits (I think i was Like number 9 or so) and I always felt this site picked things up that were missing on coindesk (my other main news site). Its a shame too that someone else doesnt seem to be willing to be taking over the reins. 🙁
Thats life i guess… all the best Eric, thanks for the great site!
Eric, your site was a very advanced news resource. Good luck with your future projects!
Just wanted to say thanks. Btw you might be able to sell the site instead of shut down?
Best of luck Eric. You did a great job. Its a crowded space and you’re a smart guy. Get those wings and start a Bitcoin flying school. BIGbtc.
Eric, good luck with the pilots licence and whatever you choose to do, you did a great job here.
All the best Eric! Stay in touch.

Eric,
Thank you for doing what you did. I’ve really enjoyed your reporting and often found you are one of the few sites I look at on a regular basis.
Please reach out to me at mike@coinfire.cf if you can. Thanks!
Hi everyone. Thanks very much for your kind words. They have brought a smile to my face. I won’t be leaving the community completely, though. I hope to contribute to other publications as time allows!
Thanks so much eric, you awesome, and good on ya
Sorry to see you go. You are the only Bitcoin news site not blocked by the company I work for.
Thanks Eric. What other sites offer news like you do? I only found yours as complete and the best for Bitcoin related news. I am still on the hunt to find any updated news site.
Thx
