The description of bitcoin is similiar to wikipedia article.--[[User:Kiba|Kiba]] 19:53, 16 December 2010 (GMT)

: It seems that the beginning of the introduction was made by Grondilu (french guy who sometimes comes on irc and auctions gold on the forum), see [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bitcoin&diff=402269158&oldid=402260422]. Since most of the bitcoin article on wikipedia was put together by the bitcoin community, it shouldn't be too difficult to have them accept publication here. In the meantime I see no harm keeping this for a few days, until we either get explicit authorization, or rewrite it into something more personnal.

:::Authorisation isn't needed. We're complying with the Wikipedia license by sourcing their work. Shouldn't matter. [[User:Genjix|Genjix]] 03:31, 19 December 2010 (GMT)


I don't like  "the idea of using digital files as money" -- maybe "the idea of using digital information as money" ? 'files' has too specific a meaning in the computer context. Then again, most dollars and euros and other conventional currency are nothing but accounting entries in various databases.--[[User:Gavinandresen|Gavin Andresen]] 16:20, 22 December 2010 (GMT)
