that's pretty neat....clearly a path to a universal world currency, but a LONG way to go. You figure international currency reserves are roughly, what, around $600 trillion? If so, they are approaching a .002% share. Moreover, their stock in trade is in turbulant economies which could cut both ways......

Oh Boy!!!! The Euro times 10
Soon, you'll be able to rob the bank with a keyboard.
I can see it now...
The FBI is in a high speed "cyber pursuit" of a little fat ten year old boy,
who is wanted for interstate theft of "bitcoins". The little miscreant is expected to
be taken into custody later this day. More at five.

Like the dollar (or the euro for that matter) isn't virtual enough already.
