Crypto and metals alike offer us options. And Satoshi Nakamoto won't suffer the fate of Bernard von NotHaus.

Yes I remember the case of Mr von NotHaus. So much for "Land of the Free"!

I once saw a silver NORFED dollar at a coin shop, but the markup was WAY too high for my budget regardless of the liberty sentiment. Junk silver is the limit of my numismatics budget.

I remember e-gold too. I had to wait years to get some of my money back. The only upside was that the grams of gold I had with e-gold went up a great deal in fiat terms by the time the U.S. government let me have my money back. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-gold

Thanks for the link on e-gold. The creator of Cloudcoin mentioned it in an interview I heard and indicated it was one of the reasons he developed Cloudcoin.
