Bitcoin may seem to be in financial trouble due to the bankruptcy of MtGox but it may seem that the other exchange, Coinbase is like taking over the service for international regions. Also, Facebook security director has decided to join Coinbase with the security for Bitcoin and Coinbase as Bitcoin back then was criticized for the lack of security which was already the target for those bad spying agencies in which the service was already attacked. Maybe the use of the service was illegal or something, like it might be used by pirates besides the normal people or maybe there was some technical chaos going on with the service?
And that Coinbase has better secure themselves from even the spying agencies or there won't be any worthy reason to use the Bitcoin service for sure.
