Hi figaro,

That is a good idea.

We are not yet ready for the "real economy" as the system need to mature. There is no basis to provide value between Bits and real currency at this time and would need considerable more work and participation to establish the Bit as a cyber currency.

We only released the Bit as a virtual currency a few days ago
