P.S. Without seeing the technical specs it is hard to describe in detail, but generally Chaumian ecash allows fully anonymous coerced transfers. The payee/coercer supplies the blinded coins and forces the payor to use them to make withdrawals from his account. The resulting signed tokens are passed to the coercer who unblinds them and now has fully anonymous, untraceable cash tokens which he can spend.
Assuming it can be done (I am checking), he would also have a large balance on his non-anoymous Ecash account that he would have a very hard time explaining to the IRS, FINsomething [sorry, forgot the name], and other interested and certainly to be involved parties. Cyberspace is much closer connected to the real world as many people on this list, myself included, would like to think it is. - -- - -- Lucky Green <mailto:shamrock@netcom.com> PGP encrypted mail preferred. - --- [This message has been signed by an auto-signing service.
