At which point do you fail to understand that people who *need* anon, untraceable transactions and use paper cash these days (not checks, not money orders, not wire transfers) would not touch a networked computer-like thingie with a 10' pole ? The value-bearing vehicle has to be 100% comprenhensible and verifiable by the end user in these cases, not by some faraway programer and a web of hype, I mean trust. Or the end user does not need cash in the first place. This is the prime reason why digital cash didn't happen - users don't really care to replace *one* middlemen (government with a printing press and shitloads of armed men protecting the reputation of cash) with another *few*. ===== end (of original message) Y-a*h*o-o (yes, they scan for this) spam follows: LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!
