Denver Area’s First Bitcoin ATM and Educational Kiosk Is Now Open - Hidden Bitcoin Promotion Begins Wednesday, July 30, Two Bitcoin Up For Grabs
XBTeller, a Denver based digital currency services company, today announced their plans to launch a network of bitcoin kiosks at locations around Colorado. The company’s first kiosk is now open for business, hosted at The Big Tomato, a long-standing hydroponics and organic garden center in Aurora, CO.
Denver, Colorado (PRWEB) July 29, 2014
Bitcoins a Mile High – Colorado will soon be home to a number of bitcoin ATMs and educational kiosks, aimed at giving residents an opportunity safely buy and sell the digital currency, or simply to learn more about bitcoin. “The Bitcoin protocol may be the most significant invention of our time – a grand experiment and global phenomenon based on free will and math; we are thrilled to be apart of it,” says XBTeller CEO, Noah Berger. The company is hoping to get people in the Denver area excited about bitcoin by giving some away. Hiding it, actually.
Taking a page from the HiddenCash playbook the company is celebrating their opening with a weeklong Hidden Bitcoin promotion in the Denver area. Starting Wednesday, July 30th twitter followers will receive clues pointing them to bitcoin paper wallets containing prizes ranging from 0.1 XBT up to 1 XBT (currently about $60-$600). ‘XBT’ is the proposed ISO currency code for bitcoin. Follow @XBTeller on twitter for clues and updates.
XBTeller kiosks provide a safe and convenient place to buy and sell bitcoin for dollars without long delays or costly international wire transfer fees. Customers can buy just $5 worth of bitcoin from a bitcoin ATM manufactured by Lamassu. An XBTeller attendant will assist customers looking to sell their bitcoin for cash. XBTeller charges a flat 5% commission for their nearly instant peer-to-peer service.
The company is largely focused on exposure and education. They aim to teach consumers more about digital currencies like bitcoin, and demonstrate the many ways it can be used alongside the legacy financial system. XBTeller says they will do that by building an interactive content network and by staffing their kiosks with bitcoin experts to assist newcomers, answer questions, and provide customer service.
“The majority of people haven't heard of Bitcoin. Of those who have, many are misinformed about its purpose and potential, and only a tiny fraction actually own or use it. We aim to change that by building an experience that targets the 99 out of 100 people who don’t have a bitcoin wallet on their phone yet,” Berger says. “I think that experience starts best with a conversation and an opportunity to ask questions. It's hard to walk up to an ATM and feel a personal connection, so we’ve added the human back into the process.” Berger sees the attended kiosk model his company is testing as a transitional step to be gradually phased out as the general public becomes more familiar with bitcoin.
The company says their kiosk attendants are ready to help throughout the transaction process. That includes clearing up common misconceptions surrounding bitcoin, and explaining security risks; even sending a micro transaction to a new user’s wallet demonstrating the ease and speed of transactions on the bitcoin network. Also, according to Berger, “the opportunity to gain direct feedback from new or potential users will be invaluable to refining our education efforts. We hope to share that insight with other companies in the bitcoin space building user-centric platforms.”
One promising use case for bitcoin is in the $15billion remittance market currently dominated by Western Union and Moneygram. But even bitcoin’s greatest supporters would admit that the network doesn't yet have enough participants to make it practical in all situations. “Risk tolerant investors have totally different goals than a typical remittance customer or a couple interested in setting up a multi-signature ‘joint savings account.’ We want to make sure everyone understands what bitcoin allows for right now and what its current limits are. For most people, bitcoin is probably best viewed as an experiment they can participate in voluntarily, not as an investment,” Berger explains.
XBTeller was founded in January 2014 with the goal of making bitcoin more accessible to newcomers, while still providing a useful service to veteran users. By eliminating many of the risks and delays involved with using overseas exchanges, XBTeller wants to help those interested in cryptocurrency test the waters at a comfortable pace. XBTeller hopes to prepare the people of Colorado for the future of money as they see it. In service of that goal, they plan to install additional bitcoin ATMs in Denver, Boulder, Blackhawk and Breckenridge before the year’s end. Reported by PRWeb 18 hours ago.

E-book Details How GIS Technology Has Become the Newest Crime-Fighting Tool
American Sentinel University’s new e-book, ‘GIS for Crime Analysis, Law Enforcement and Public Safety,’ profiles how geographic information systems (GIS) has become an effective new crime-fighting tool used by law enforcement agencies to uncover criminal patterns that would be otherwise impossible to identify. Download the free e-book at http://www.americansentinel.edu/blog/2014/06/24/new-e-book-gis-for-crime-analysis-law-enforemcent-and-public-safety/.
Aurora, CO (PRWEB) July 30, 2014
American Sentinel University’s new e-book, ‘GIS for Crime Analysis, Law Enforcement and Public Safety,’ profiles how geographic information systems (GIS) has become an effective new crime-fighting tool used by law enforcement agencies to uncover criminal patterns that would be otherwise impossible to identify. The complimentary e-book is available for download at http://www.americansentinel.edu/blog/2014/06/24/new-e-book-gis-for-crime-analysis-law-enforemcent-and-public-safety/.
GIS technology merges and manages massive amounts of law enforcement data into geodatabases that instantly analyze, map and aggregate data and provide law enforcement agencies with actionable intelligence to fight crime.
Senior Cpl. D.J. Beaty, police GIS and geospatial analyst for the Dallas Police Department is featured in the e-book and shares insight about how his use of GIS and geospatial analysis has improved the ability to fight crime to ensure public safety.
“Crime is not uniformly distributed and identifying high crime areas or hot spots is significant for strategic and tactical approaches for law enforcement agencies,” says Sr. Cpl. Beaty. “New situations require new strategies and solutions. GIS analysis helps law enforcement agencies prioritize and allocate resources to targeted areas to address specific criminal activity. By implementing a geographic approach to analyze crime, the Dallas Police Department can efficiently and effectively meet the challenge of reducing crime in our community.”
Location-based Data Creates Actionable Intelligence for Law Enforcement
The advanced spatial analysis of crime data continues to change the ways in which modern policing occurs. GIS provides the geographic advantage for law enforcement agencies to combat crime by using computers, analysis and programming skills to make predictions based on proprietary algorithms.
‘GIS for Crime Analysis, Law Enforcement and Public Safety’ is a must-read for law enforcement professionals whose organization or company plans to implement new, or enhance existing GIS technology. The e-book provides valuable insight about why GIS is on forefront of cutting-edge technology, the Dallas Police Department’s successful use of GIS to combat crime and offers a guide for law enforcement professionals to enhance their educational and professional goals.
Topics include:
-Technology and Its Application
-Types of Users
-Training and Background
“As more law enforcement agencies embrace GIS, overall public safety can be enhanced through better crime prevention strategies, improved response times, interagency data sharing, cooperation and collaboration to ultimately see reduced crime rates through the community,” says Stephen A. McElroy, Ph.D., GIS program chair at American Sentinel University. “GIS has opened a world of new tools for law enforcement and given practitioners in the field a way to advance their careers while making a significant contribution to public safety and order.”

The global digital pathology market was valued at an estimated $250.2 million in 2013 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.8%, to reach an estimated $437 million by 2018.
The demand for digital pathology is growing and is expected to continue to rise in the coming years as well. The use of scanners and image analysis software enable pathologists to be efficient and this leads to improved quality care for patients.
In 2013, the North American market was valued at $128.9 million and accounted for the largest share of the global digital pathology market, followed by Europe and Asia. The North American market is expected to grow at a healthy growth rate over the next five years. This high growth can be attributed to the favorable reimbursement scenario in the U.S. and the use of digital pathology to improve the quality of cancer diagnosis in Canada. However, lack of FDA approvals for digital pathology to be used for primary diagnosis acts as a major barrier for the North American market.

The European region has gained momentum for digital pathology. Some of the European countries have witnessed successful pathology projects which are likely to lead to higher adoption of digital pathology in these countries. Furthermore, Europe hosts various digital pathology conferences that aim to bring professionals under one roof and bring to light the ongoing developments in digital pathology. However, the Asian market, slated at an estimated CAGR of 13.7%, will experience the highest growth in the digital pathology market. The rise in awareness of digital pathology and its benefits, collaborative efforts by players, and federal health departments encouraging the use of digital pathology to improve the quality of cancer diagnosis are some of the factors driving the growth of the Asian market.
