I'm not sure I trust Bitcoin itself, although I have used it as a transfer medium to fund a couple of purchases.

Somehow, Open Source Developer project and Cryptocurrency don't seem like two terms that add up when combined.

No doubt by the time I feel comfortable with the type of transaction, it will already be common place.

Hopefully the next chapter in the Fall of the Empire won't be written "It was bad when they first substituted currency backed with securities, then left the paper money to float without support, but their real downfall was replacing the currency traded electronically with just software"
