Matt's got far more interesting (though sometimes edgy) things to say. Indeed…only Arrington’s downright mean with no analysis. Matt’s got far more interesting (though sometimes edgy) things to say.

On July 15, 2005 I met with Kurt Huang and Duane Kuroda at BitPass to try to persuade them to work with me on the development of DonationPal/SubscriptionPal which is an application that would sit on top of BitPass (or any similar micropayment system). They seemed intent and interested during our 2 hour meeting but I never heard back from them. Perhaps the turmoil of losing their CEO recently was still an issue.

A one click anonymous currency for the web is a crying need. Email it to a friend or family member or buy at your favorite Ecommerce site. The Yaga technology acquired by Bitpass had great promise... Hasta la vista, Bitpass. May the next start-up get the Net currency right. Bitpass may well go down as one of many visionary ships launched 10 years too early.
