Re: What backs up digital money?

And here's another data point I learned at CFP. <HEARSAY> Kawika Daguio (Federal Representative, Regulatory & Trust Affairs, American Bankers Association) mentioned that the Stamp Payments Act (or something like that) forbids "open" currencies in amounts less than $1. It seems certain casinos have been hit with this, when other businesses in the area started accepting their chips as "real" money. It seemed to me that he thought that ecash (Digicash's version) wouldn't fly in the US. </HEARSAY> We'll see, I guess... - Ian "Now where's the code for that library...?"
