Another blog post, this time looking at the possibility of a fractional reserve banking system based on Bitcoin:

"We are seeing the rise of one of the first viable internet currencies where nobody is control. The growth in size, payments and goods and services offered are evidence of this. However, the future of Bitcoin may look quite different to its origins as a cypher-punk geek project."
