The headline was taken from the online edition of Canadian paper, Brandon Sun.

Very pro bitcoin article.

good article.

fairly well-balanced, and obviously decently researched.  i liked the clear differentiation between the client and the exchanges, when discussing hacks and risk.  the choice of Antweiler as the obligatory skeptic seemed a bit off though - a WWII currency and population statistics geek?

eh.

definitely worth the read.  thanks for posting this.
