I am Scottish, and I had said from the beginning of the independance debate that Scotland did need it's own currency; thats what we have bitcoin.
When a whole country needs relibility in a currency you just don't throw together a new alt-coin and think it'll be okay. How many Scots know anything about Bitcoin? Not many, everyone seems to think I work on wall street or something, only a small handful of people I explain it to understand, they still class it as an investment which in away it still currently is.
Bitcoin or any alt-coin isn't stable enough to be a currency for a whole nation yet. Scotland shouldn't go independent; one day, yeah they should but we are far from ready. It's like a pissing match between the likes of Salmand and David Cameron, they should get these useless politicians out of parliment and find people who actually have a brain.
