You can read about what is going on around the world concerning this technology and governments' involvement and how it will impact banking and world currencies at the online news service of crypto-currencies, Coin Desk.In the meantime, while we get articles and comments contributed to our blog, you can see the Tozan Coin QR Code which represents the numbers and letters below it, and those of you who have `bitcoin wallets' can scan this code or type/copy in the public key and send us a bitcoin donation.
