 The Bitcoin Foundation’s executive director, Jon Matonis, travels the world to promote the virtual currency as a replacement for traditional money. Some of his members want him to focus on a less lofty goal: helping them make lots of old-fashioned cash.

Matonis, a longtime advocate of what he calls “non- political money”, has built the group into a kind of a bitcoin governing body. Last week, he unveiled a website aimed at raising the virtual currency’s public profile. Some foundation members are dismayed by Matonis’ leadership and grander plans.
