Bitcoins: A Decentralized Digital Currency?

A possible alternative to our growing financial crisis

I dont remember seeing this before but it appears to be from Dec 2011 based on the comment and trackbacks. I didnt see a published date on the article itself (quite unprofessional for a publisher, lol).
