2012-04-20 A big cover story in the weekend edition of The Marker [Israel]

^ This is so time-consuming, I don't know if I'll be able to complete this. I think I did about 1/4 of the article. Following there is some mediocre explanation of Bitcoin's technicals and history, and then some stuff about other currencies, and a conclusion.

whats the conclusion?

The end is something like this:

"Are the alternate currencys a passing phenomena that will dissapear with the end of the financial crises or a sign of a big change in how the world economy is built and a hint at moving to a more stable global system that better integrates(?) local and worldwide."

It then ends with the quote from the end of the good wife (edited version):

Alicia:  Listen, I bought a Bitcoin last night.  It was thrilling."

Biggs: "Really? Cool , it's the future! Although I never actually explained how."

Alicia: "I don't know. It didn't feel real.

Biggs:   "Real's gonna change. Just watch."


EDIT: check out Menis full translation....

I added some more to the translation.

Upon closer inspection, the article contains numerous factual errors and unwarranted sensationalism. But as I said it's a bit better than what we usually have.

Thanks for devoting so much of your time in translating it. I've done some casual translation before and I found that it's both time and brain-power consuming.
