"In one instance, a rai being transported by canoe was accidentally dropped and sank to the sea floor. Although it was never seen again, everyone agreed that the rai must still be there, so it continued to be transacted as genuine currency.[4] What is important is that ownership of the rai is clear to everyone, not that the rai is physically transferred or even physically accessible to either party in the transfer."-TaoPhoenix (October 08, 2012, 11:08 AM)

So was that the first Rai of Hope?

Here's an interesting article on Bitcoin:
http://www.libertariannews.org/2012/10/31/european-central-bank-report-on-bitcoin-its-likely-to-grow-and-it-poses-risks/
The European Central Bank (ECB) recently issued a report on digital currencies. The report largely revolves around Bitcoins and Linden Dollars, and provides a review of the currencies from the perspective of central bankers. Unsurprisingly, they found the currencies to pose “risks” that potentially require future “regulation.”
