Title: Two separate Bitcoin items on RT this evening plus a mention of Swiftcoin?
Post by: No_2 on November 04, 2013, 12:28:43 AM
Watching Russia Today here in the UK and there were two separate items about Bitcoin within half an hour of each other. Nice. Got to love Russia Today.

The second item had an interview with a guest 'expert' who mentioned new forms of money like "Bitcoin and Swiftcoin". What is Swiftcoin and for what reason would a supposed expert mention it?

Best lead I could find is this which seems to be propriety attempt at Bitcoin:

Check this out, they've even used Casascius's physical bitcoins as a background for their vouchers!

Ok, got it:

This was the broadcast I saw, check out Mr David Bruno at 09:06:

He seems to be linked to first national bank (http://www.firstnationalib.com/).

So RT called in an 'expert' who's plugging his own carbon copy closed source version of Bitcoin on TV.

Good job RT  :-[.
