Grear news! What next?  Smiley

It would be great is someone could implement FiatCoin (pegged to USD, EUR, GBP, etc.), hopefully without any AML/KYC restrictions (beyond the initial purchase). Then you can truly trade Bitcoins and fiat from your client.
Syscoin does this

Not what I had in mine. The FiatCoin would be unmineable and instead backed by an equivalent amount of fiat. The issuance would be done by a centralized authority (e.g. bank or brokerage, possibly for a small fee) but once issued they may be exchanged freely on a distributed blockchain that is compatible with cross-chain transactions. Mining will be fee based only without block rewards.
