Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Yes. I think the Economist got it right - including a technical explanation I can give to my mother.

The Economist article got 'it right'.

Also, I have to wonder how many one-sentence threads calista is going to post. Sure you shouldn't just be spewing out nonsense on twitter? It seems to fit your format.

I thought the recent Guardian article was a decent attempt. They didn't seem to have any direct intent at least to misrepresent anything or twist the facts.

 It doesn't matter. The publicity alone is more valuable to Bitcoin's long-term success than "getting it right."

I just registered for the $PLOTS presale! Thank you @plotsfinance for allowing me to purchase tokens at the discounted valuation of only $0.015 per token, a special offer for anyone who participated in the airdrop. Tier II round is for the public at $0.025 per token. Allocation is very limited and you need to register first using the official Part III link found on their twitter. Register using my referral code CPB5 to receive 2,500 points.
