Não sei se já ouviram falar de um livro chamado Cryptonomicon (site oficial em http://www.cryptonomicon.com/) e http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptonomicon

O livro é de 1999 e narra sua história dividida em dois períodos, o primeiro durante a segunda guerra mundial enquanto o segundo se passa no final dos anos 90. Fiquei impressionado com a trama:

Quote
The second narrative is set in the late 1990s with descendants of the first narrative's characters employing cryptologic, telecom and computer technology to build an underground data haven in the fictional Sultanate of Kinakuta. Their goal is to facilitate anonymous Internet banking using electronic money and (later) digital gold currency, with a longer range objective to distribute Holocaust Education and Avoidance Pod (HEAP) media for instructing genocide-target populations on defensive warfare.

Só faltou para o Bitcoin o "datacenter subterrâneo", substituído (sabiamente) pelo processamento distribuído.

Será que Satoshi leu esse livro :-)
