Given the explosion of interest over the past year in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, as well as the broader applications of blockchain technology, we thought it would be useful to note that GDELT Summary can be used to track global coverage of any topic, including cryptographic currencies and their underlying technologies.

Towards that end, we've created several GDELT Summary dashboards, below, that demonstrate how you can use Summary to track emerging technology trends.

• Bitcoin/Cryptocurrencies Dashboard (Past Year)
• Bitcoin/Cryptocurrencies Article Gallery (Past Month)
• Blockchain Dashboard (Past Year)
• Blockchain Article Gallery (Past Month)
