Fwiw, I have been participating on the Zidisha.org microlending community for over a year and I notice there are several problems that ftc might help to address. The organization often struggles to get money into these poorer countries and to the lenders, and the lenders may have to travel 50km to visit a bank to make a monthly payment. They have access to internet and mobile phones but not to financial services that are easy to use.
I think microlending organizations would be very open to viable micro payment systems.

Nice blog solasaurus :)

Got a reply from Coinjar:
[quote]Thanks for the feedback. We’re keen on expanding to other
crypto-currencies – our feature set is heavily dependant on the feedback
we receive. Right now we’ve had most requests for Litecoin integration so
that’s most probably going to be our first addition.

We’ve had a few other requests for FTC, we’ll have to look into this soon!

Cheers,[/quote]

So it seems that feedback to these businesses does make a difference after all. So anyone out there who does want to convert AUD or NZD straight to FTC, you might want to follow this up.

What about starting a message board type thing for local FTC trades like local bitcoins. Have boards for diff geographic regions and people could post to set up a public meeting place with a seller/buyer, like a coffee shop, and trade FTC for fiat.

That’s one of my pet projects I’m working on in the background.
