And as far as giving up either my fingerprints or a retinal scan to some anonymous internet project spouting something about "fair money supply"? Hell fucking no. I wouldn't provide you with my hair color, much less any other tool for identity thieves.
absolutely agree with you here! maybe we are giving our fingerprints or eye scans to our government but to an unknown project in cyberspace promising a "fair money supply", of course big NO for my answer! we really don't know his ultimate motive for this kind of procedure and we don't know if this coin will really take off or not. what is his guarantee that this will be of worth in the future? and even if he laid out his detailed plans and all, still i will not be convinced to give the identity that is all i ever have.
