Richi Jennings: California 'falsely' accuses Bitcoin Foundation


Safety and Soundness: That's the DFI's motto. The California Department of
Financial Institutions (DFI) has warned the Bitcoin Foundation to stop
exchanging money without a license. Thing is, the Foundation doesn't do that, at
least according to its Secretary, who would know about these things, you'd
think. The DFI's C&D letter is also said to have given the Foundation an
impossible deadline to respond. In IT Blogwatch, bloggers accuse the DFI of a
dirty turf war.
