Question from a newbie here...
I only came across BitCoin recently, so please, bare with me..
I am soo loving this concept and it's application. Security, LE, encryption, trust, and theft all seem to be discussed regularly. If BitCoins became more 'mainstream' (which it appears the majority want), wouldn't these type of issues come up in a more dramatic form? In other words, can it really become more popular with the mass populus needing to understand encryption, and all of the more technical facts? I can understand it (to some degree) fine on my own, but doesn't it somewhat counter-productive in a way?
Just askin.
Thanks
