Washington Times article (subtlely) endorses Bitcoin

[hugolp]

The conclussion of the article:

But there is some reason to be hopeful because very bright and creative folks are experimenting with private monies on the Internet. Advances in computing power and encryption technologies are increasingly making it possible for people to get around the destructive government money monopoly. With some luck and some support from countries that are not part of the U.S. dollar, euro and Japanese yen blocs, free money might yet succeed. If not, we will continue to be doomed to a life of boom and bust, and inflation and deflation, as the central banks continue to nail all of us on the cross of government monopoly money.

Wonder what he is talking about

The whole article is worth the read: http://www.cato.org/pub_display.php?pub_id=13798

Nice.  It will take thousands of articles like this (not people saying use Bitcoin you can make 489032904283490382490% profit in 9 seconds) to slowly ever so slowly convince people to try an alternate currency.  We are talking timelines in years if not decades.

That has always been the game plan

I was inspired by your post, Coinabul, and opted to start a new thread to not hijack this one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=50352.msg599748#msg599748
