Yes, another opportunity for people to dump their bad coins and actually get real bitcoins. I recommend that people do this now before it's to late.

There's a great big world outside of the United States that we can serve without a problem.  Within the US, some states are friendlier than others and it's just going to be a process of going to them one at a time to get the licenses we need where we need them.  We need the same licenses that exchanges based outside of the US need in order to serve US customers.
