When I was working on Eternity DDS stuff, I basically came to the same conclusion as Adam -- without anonymous bearer cash, you can't do a workable eternity implementation.
I'm not familiar with the latest eternity designs, but I wonder if they could be extended to provide a global time ordering between the published documents? If so perhaps the eternity service can be used to implement b-money (see http://www.eskimo.com/~weidai/bmoney.txt) and the chicken and egg problem would be solved at once.
