> there should be a article in there, like "A Bitcoin service"

Newspaper headlines have evolved own special grammar rules, designed to save space. According to Wikipedia [1], "Articles are usually omitted."

Also, it's a little ironic that this comment, nitpicking the headline's choice of articles, itself uses articles incorrectly (it should say "there should be _an_ article in there.")
