Shame, this could've been interesting, but instead reads like a marketing pitch.

Of course, I probably shouldn't be surprised. ZapChain is, themselves, a company delivering services for the bitcoin community, so they are incentivized to put a positive spin on any major players in the space (since any good bitcoin press is good for them) in order to make the whole market look more mature and vibrant.

Gotta shake off the Mt. Gox stink somehow... :)

Eh, there are a ton of news organization in the space that don't put a positive spin on bitcoin companies. Coinfire has been focused on the Garza stuff, Two Bit Idiot broke the Gox story... not sure why you'd think ZapChain is any different.
If anything, the rise of Bitcoin thus far has certainly been interesting! As for Coinbase, their heft and resources will certainly help mainstream this new decentralized money system.
