Title: [Bitcoin] Encryption can literally save someone's life [video]
Post by: pollen_bit on June 21, 2014, 11:51:32 AM
I met Jay Larson, co-founder of Tunapanda, during my recent journey in Kenya. Tunapanda is a partner ROCK, where I had a chance to work with the program’s participants. Tunapanda are in the midst of a crowd-funding campaign and, in order to help raising awareness of the fantastic job these guys are doing, I decided to release [most of], the raw material from a conversation I had with Jay on a hot Sunday afternoon in Kibera. I wish them all the best.

Actually, nothing in Bitcoin is encrypted, except the wallet if you choose to do so.

Imagine how many additional lives would've been lost without our having the ability to invent Enigma to decode German transmissions.  Or had the Japanese figured out we where using the Navajo language for communications encryption.  Ciphers and some form of encryption or another literally dates back thousands of years.
