On a PC World Article on Bitcoin and WikiLeaks Kicking the Hornet’s Nest

IN LIGHT OF THE ISSUES that WikiLeaks was bringing to the fore and the possible role that Bitcoin could play in helping with WikiLeaks’s funding, PC World posted an article related to Bitcoin. Clearly, Bitcoin was starting to garner attention in the press. What is interesting is Satoshi’s comment referencing WikiLeaks “kicking the hornet’s nest”. Here is a link to the article in PC World, followed by Satoshi’s comment.

It would have been nice to get this attention in any other context. WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet’s nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.
