Why use Digital Currencies? -
Why
use Digital Currencies? - Digital Currencies are able to provide
privacy to their customers, and still be able to guarantee that they are
not being used for money laundering. Digital Currencies are "orthogonal"
to the traditional financial world. As long as all the money coming in
and out goes through banks with anti-money laundering practices
in place, then money laundering is impossible. Furthermore, all of
the Digital Currencies in business at this time are firmly committed to
discouraging crime and money laundering, while at the same time protecting
the privacy of their account holders. This means you can use Digital Currencies
to do business with confidence that you are in good company!
The International Gold Community
-The
International Gold Community - Converted into bits in this way, gold
once again becomes a viable -- some would say vastly superior -- kind of
money. Conceptually, it works like this: You transfer some dollars or euros
or whatever to a firm that buys gold for you and deposits it in a super-safe
vault. You then make payments from this account via credit card or PC,
and the gold -- without ever leaving the vault -- is credited to the recipient's
account.

The Internet now makes it possible for private companies or individuals
to offer asset-backed digital currencies from small friendly countries
that desire to attract capital. These digital currencies transcend political
borders and will facilitate a new era of international mercantilism while
simultaneously freeing businessmen from the tyranny of national fiat currencies
and the draconian controls that go along with them. |
