Internet currencies were planned and mooted all the way from the 1980s. Read up on David Chaum and Digicash. Bitcoin's an amalgamation of the ideas of many different people. It's kind of odd that it wasn't picked up immediately by the people in the know as it's something they all worked towards for so long.
