Anyway, it is not easy to create a public company, a public nexus of attack, and then deploy systems which target that high-value sweet spot. The real bankers and the regulators won't allow such things into the official banking system. (Why do people think the banking system will embrace "digital bearer bonds" having untraceability features when true bearer bonds were eliminated years ago?)
I think the safest convenient path to development is to develop untraceable cash in the US with restrictions on any large transfers. Then, once the technology is working, set up a complete new company in a jurisdiction such as Nauru or Antigua which allows bearer instruments of large value. --digsig James A.
