No, don’t “bring it on”.
The project needs to grow gradually so the software can be strengthened along the way.
I make this appeal to WikiLeaks not to try to use Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a small beta community in its infancy. You would not stand to get more than pocket change, and the heat you would bring would likely destroy us at this stage.
This is exactly what I was saying all along, but nobody is listening. Bitcoin is not yet stron enough to take on such a huge task.
Pushing bitcoin on wikileaks will kill bitcoin, and still it won’t help wikileaks a lot.
