People publish nonsense even in high profile journals.
And a reasonable proportion of that nonsense will become tomorrow's technology.

An even faster approach to computing is going to be done through synthetic biology. A rapidly growing field, taken "public" by "Dr Craig Venter" that created the first artificial lifeform only a few years ago. (Google Synthia).
Fast forward today, we are looking at logical gates being assembled by the use of synthetic biology. For great reference look here: http://www.kurzweilai.net/scientists-create-computing-building-blocks-from-bacteria-and-dna or here: http://www3.imperial.ac.uk/portal/page/portallive/AF95133B97CC7745E040C69B47390348
Question is how soon we can expect a synthetic biological ASIC device and how much such can outperform silicon based products. Looking at the synthetic biology and how it develops this could hit us anytime out of the blue.
I havent been able to really figuere out what team in what country is close to getting a wet-ware computer up and running. If you know more about this please do feel free to post. This could be the next mayor development in computing, and what better way to test speed is there than mining Bitcoins.

No team is "close". No team is even "far". It's not going to happen. "wet-ware" computers will always tremendously suck except for very specific pattern recognition functions using DNA oligonucleotides. Erik Winfree at CalTech is the closest to having a generalized computational device, but he is a long way away from anything practical. Silicon computers will always be at least 100,000,000 times faster. I am an expert in a related field.

It's unlikely that molecular computation will ever be used as a means to compute the block-chain, because the "problem" changes every 10 minutes, requiring to reprogram the genetic material. Input and Output to and from a molecular computer is non-trivial.
It's more likely that molecular computation is a means to brute-force the private keys of bitcoin addresses. Especially those addresses which are considered dead and have huge balances.
