e$: Come aaaannnndddd Get it!
I'm in the process of scrambling to get the e$ web page set up for e-cash before the deadline for *no-fee* *commercial* accounts at Mark Twain Bank this Friday, and who should answer the mail but fellow cypherpunk Lucky Green. So, Lucky tells me that *he's* the guy who beat up Chaum/MTB and Co. to prime the pump for web-vendors by offering *free* signup for e-cash accounts. Muchos Kudos to Lucky for making that happen. Sameer's done it, I'm going to do it, and I'm hoping that everyone who *can* do it *will*. Lumpy though MTB may be, they're taking a risk that no one else in the financial community would, and they deserve whatever support we can give 'em. If they do it and it works, there will be others. Come on, people, let's make it work. Put your e$ where your mouth is, or at least on a hard drive somewhere... http://www.marktwain.com/ecash.html Cheers, Bob Hettinga ----------------- Robert Hettinga (rah@shipwright.com) e$, 44 Farquhar Street, Boston, MA 02131 USA (617) 958-3971 "Reality is not optional." --Thomas Sowell The e$ Home Page: http://www.webstuff.apple.com/~vinnie/Rah

Although Private Idaho will always remain free, to encourage Ecash use, my Web page will support "donations." The initial merchant list sounds like it's going to be a subset of this list. Time to go add the Mark Twain links to the page. This is going to be fun...

Donations are also possible through the remailer interface at http://www.c2.org/remail/by-www.phtml and https://www.c2.org/remail/by-www.phtml Once you send a message you'll be prompted if you want to pay for the service you just used.
