What do you guys think of this? http://buttercoin.com/ Just received investment from Kevin Rose and other big names. Looks like if you are capable, you will easily be able to start your own marketplace.

So somebody claims to offer a hosted package for running a Bitcoin exchange. That doesn't solve any of the problems on the money side.

You can buy software packages for running a bank. It doesn't make you a bank.

I'd have to assume they have something figured out. I doubt Google would be investing in them if they didn't.

They do have something figured out. They want to dump the white-box Bitcoin software product and get into the remittance business, like Western Union.

At the moment their site displays a blank page. It's loading lots of CSS, but there's nothing displayed.
