[sl4shd0t]

angry tapir writes "A Google engineer has released an open source Java client for the Bitcoin peer-to-peer currency system, simply called BitcoinJ. Bitcoin is an Internet currency that uses a P2P architecture for processing transactions, avoiding the need for a central bank or payment system. Cio.com.au also has an interview with Gavin Andresen, the technical lead of the Bitcoin virtual currency system." Just don't say you're minting anything.http://a.fsdn.com/sd/facebook_icon_large.png (http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fnews.slashdot.org%2Fstor y%2F11%2F03%2F23%2F0210207%2FGoogle-Engineer-Releases-Open-Source-Bitcoin-Client%3Ffrom%3Dfb) http://a.fsdn.com/sd/twitter_icon_large.png (http://twitter.com/home?status=Google+Engineer+Releases+Open+Source+B itcoin+Client%3A+http%3A%2F%2Fbit.ly%2FgrpkhD)
