Interesting, I haven't heard of GNU Taler. But please excuse my
ignorance: Reading the official website doesn't help me understand
exactly what it is. Can you explain (or link to a good explanation)?

gnu taler seems sufficient to me. We don't need crypto currency, a way to
anonymously and securely transfer actual money should do just fine.

Currently Bitcoin is an insane gold-rush bubble that is frivolous and

indeed... would it not be worthwhile, do you think, to leverage
*this* opportunity... such that the funds were available to *create*
an eco-responsible coin that is *properly* libre, properly
peer-to-peer distributed, and so on?
look at what i put out only a few weeks ago, we analysed at least two
alt-coins that, whilst the people behind it had their hearts in the
right places they *still* did not fundamentally get it.
if we don't do this "properly" then those alt-coins will be all that
is available... oh and bitcoin. is that something we really really
want?
gone midnight here (julie) i'll write a more complete reply tomorrow.
