The facts of the matter is that First Virtual currently provides a net benefit by moving real value (e.g. dollars) around, and Digicash does not. Until the Digicash system can move real value, there is no reason to use it.
I think I'm missing something here. Isn't the Digicash system in a beta-phase? At this point, aren't they just trying to work out the kinks and show people that it works? Obviously, a system that hasn't been deployed isn't as useful as one that has. The question is, once Digicash is released for real, how will it compare to FV? I don't have any Digicash software yet, but I'm very interested in it, and I wonder if anyone else feels that a Digicash beta testers mail list would be a good thing. I'd like to hear what you guys think of it. == Alex Strasheim | finger astrashe@nyx.cs.du.edu alex@omaha.com | for my PGP 2.6.1. public key -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBLuDMqxEpP7+baaPtAQFQ0gP+PZzEx6Z6fQiURXCUtnRnxeVZEVweZ4K3 fLRhvC8nizTdQKPqMQcGQzd/jRqV1zLiPuEKwTLTsz9onEqwaDF7t1sg5DCbqlXj KrYTfKXxOyCDY+knc2Bv72TxLcO0V2Rk07McgDfufLel+GUrdCXA4zHc/nTdktKV KgbF5+Nse/k= =WyDJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
