"Journalists" need to stop equating the price of Bitcoin to conferences or other random events. Seriously, you think the price of Bitcoin is above $500 because of an Amsterdam conference and BitPay's series A funding?

So, what you mean is they need to stop treating it like every other commodity, equity, or other marketed product they report on?

So why is the price of bitcoin over $500 then....
Because more people have wanted to purchase bitcoins than have wanted to sell them recently.
