The first thing which concerns me is the SRP violation, your Bitcoin
class probably shouldn't be responsible for:
- opening socket,
- parsing results,
- rendering output.
I don't know the details but from my point of view you should split that functionality to smaller classes/functions (in case of using only modules), and one of them will be responsible for retrieving data from web. Please also keep in mind that global state is evil (singletons in some contexts could be described as global state).
Another thing which is a smell from my point of view is opening a socket inside the constructor. This isn't testable, of course you could mock/stub socket, but from my point of view it's better when class requires all it's dependencies as a constructor parameter. By doing it that way you could also notice some classes with to wide responsibility (if your constructor requires more that 3,4 parameters it definitely could be simplified).
