smart people working like this beats academia by a mile

fellowtraveler went from idea, peer review, to increased funding (literally cash in hand) and collaboration in less than 24 hrs.

Fellowtraveler has been determined to see OT succeed since introducing it many moons ago. I have pointed out the need for OT, as have others, to key developers on the forums/IRC which fell on deaf ears.
Only the latest fears of de"gox"ification has opened everyone up to the possibility that we had the solution in front of us all the time. This is not a download once, free mined coins, windows-only easy pie GUI. This solution requires work by server dudes, graphics guys/gals and architecture.
BMOT is a framework that opens a new playground. SCAMMERS WON'T LIKE THIS PLACE and traders must play fair. No more speculation walls or bit* scams allowed. Bitcoin and altcoins acting cooperatively and contracts/commodities/PMs from legitimate sources or GTFO! This has a built in stop button! No more jungle tactics. The strong will survive and thrive, but the newbies can cling to the strong instead of being fleeced by the wolves.
TLDR;
FT has waited for the perfect moment to reintroduce Open-Transactions.
OT with BM can setup groupings of pooled interests.

wow so the DOJ cracking down on gox's US account might be the best thing to have possibly happened for OT and p2p exchanges generally
