Nice article up at Counting Cats on Digital Cash. PaAnnoyed explains his articles well and they are always worth a read.
However, I’m never one for changing something that works for something that has technology involved just for the sake of technology. Technology such as encrypting and blind signitures are of use and are no doubt being used where it works out but as a replacement for cash? I doubt it. To many things to go wrong and, this is the important bit, it is still within the view of the all seeing government. In my opinion the real reason people use cash is to keep themselves out of the governments view so anything that does not address that is of no use.
Liars when they speak the truth are not believed. — Aristotle (384 BC – 322 BC)
