They see bitcoin as possible terrorist money. That's now the corporate view. They're looking for a "counter-terrorism expert".

Is Lockheed looking to get into the business of money laundering, or catching money launderers, or both?

Lulz incoming [edit] But seriously, no. Clearly the sentence that mentions Bitcoin is designed to attract individuals who are generally 'creative' with negotiating. Nothing to do with the actual currency itself, let alone LM concocting deals in Bitcoin. Just to make sure we're on the same line here.

Fairly obvious I would think. They are trying to devise a means of tracking terrorism funding and they consider bitcoin to be a possible means of doing so. They want someone who can cover all of what they consider the primary means of funding in order to develop a system to track the funds (in both directions). At least that is how it reads to me.

Supporting bitcoin as best I can with 1. mining, 2. buying with bitcoin, 3. selling (or trying to) for bitcoin. If you make a donation to: 1MahzUUEYJrZ4VbPRm2h5itGZKEguGVZK1 I'll get it into circulation.

Seems pretty clear that there is some contract work available (or will be soon) from the government that requires someone who is familiar with alternative payment systems in order to track AML or financing for undesirable groups. I'd like to see if the contract request actually references Bitcoin. It could be a sign that the government is talking more of an interest in monitoring the currency.

This is what I think as well. Looks like Bitcoins bad rep is causing a reaction.

This is for an analyst, an intelligence analyst. Exactly the sorts of people that need to keep track of potential new twists in the great game.
The good news is that Bitcoin got first billing and SL got second billing. Hope it wasn't just alphabetical.
Oh, and you can be sure that the Company will be using bitcoin extensively, just as soon as it is big enough for them to hide in.

Possible? That's how they're planning to attack it. I'd even put BTC on that bet. It's gonna be fun when they "find" a MtGox account linked to a Dwolla account linked to someone who knows someone affiliated with "Al Queda"...lol.

lol, I wouldn't be suprised I wouldn't be surprised if SR is run by a US government agency. 10% of every transaction adds up, and soon you own a majority of the BTC in existence (with a goal to keep those coins out of circulation). Easy way to kill it, if you're willing to wait for a slow death.

I'd pay extra taxes this year, with a smile on my face, if they were really doing it.
