Well, there are loads of way we can monetize in the future. For example, lets say you normally go for a run, you could potentially pay 10 bucks for a service that puts coins in your running path, if you go for a run every day you get the money back, if you skip a day, you loose that money and that's the site commision. This is just an example from the top of my head. Obv you also have the ol' advertising for new bitcoins shops that want to attract new customers. If you pay x amount to get bitcoins spread in your city as a shop, those customers will be coming back to your shop, so it benefits everyone

Can anyone use it to attract people to a specific spot?

{ Imagine a sequence of bits generated from the first decimal place of the square roots of whole integers that are irrational numbers. If the decimal falls between 0 and 5, it's considered bit 0, and if it falls between 5 and 10, it's considered bit 1. This sequence from a simple integer count of contiguous irrationals and their logical decimal expansion of the first decimal place is called the 'main irrational stream.' Our goal is to design a physical and optical computing system system that can detect when this stream starts matching a specific pattern of a given size of bits. bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=166760.0 } Satoshi did use a friend class in C++ and put a comment on the code saying: "This is why people hate C++".

We're very cautious about security of people. For now we're setting up were the btc are located on our own based on different information and time schedules for each city we launch. If we add a crowsourced mechanism for setting up places, first thing on the list is the security, always.

Interesting idea, E. Sorta like btc geocaching? Sounds like you're still ironing some things out. To that end, you should probably see here.

"Every city"? Maybe say "most major cities in the US". For other countries, it is some of the biggest cities at most.
