The "Venture capitalists" they move more and more money for startups on Bitcoin and criptovalute.

Investors who like the risk (but also great economic returns) are increasingly choosing more startup related to Bitcoin, a strong signal that the digital currency is on track to become the most innovative force (and profitable) after the Internet.
According to a continuously updated page of CoinDesk, the investments made ​​by venture capitalists in startups connected to Bitcoin in May alone amounted to $ 56 million, as a figure very close to the 57.24 million invested in the first 4 months of 2014 Just Monday the last startup BitGo that deals with security for Bitcoin wallet and announced that it had raised a loan of $ 12 million from Redpoint Ventures . In all the investments made ​​by venture capitalists in the field of Bitcoin amounted to about 126 million dollars in 2014 alone this rate by the end of the year the amount invested will exceed $ 250 million.
Some might say that $ 250 million are insignificant compared with a total investment of 29.4 billion dollars last year by venture capitalists. But we read the data from another perspective: $ 250 million would be about 3 times the investment made ​​in activities related to Bitcoin by venture capitalists in 2013 "We are still at the dawn of the Bitcoin. If you compare the industry to the Internet is as if we were in 1995 or '96 and at the moment it is only a matter of improving the infrastructure. " said Pamir Gelenbe , Hummingbird Ventures, a MarketWatch.
In fact, $ 250 million is approximately equal to the total investment made ​​in the field of Internet startup in 1995 This is a point that Marc Andreessen, one of the co-founders of the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, has raised often. His firm has already invested $ 50 million in startup related to Bitcoin and other invested $ means "hundreds of millions" .
"In 1994, as a venture capitalist, would be a good idea to take the Internet seriously and invest in a selection of companies connected to the Internet [...] who did it has earned us a lot," Andreessen said in a meeting on a Bitcoin of March.
Obviously there are still those who think that the Bitcoin will fail, or that it is even a scam, but the histogram below is clear: the venture capitalists are increasingly rapidly throwing gasoline on the fire of Bitcoin.
