Can I assume then that this is actually workable?
I live within a tightly knit community in South East London. I think I could get nearly every shop in the town to accept Bitcoin. I know a good proportion of the shop owners. You'd have to repackage it as "community money" though as this town is one of those socialist hippy arty California type towns.
They tried the community money thing in Brixton a few years ago. It didn't work. I take it you're talking about New Cross. I also take it that you've never been to California, haha.
I have a Brixton pound note stuck to the wall of my office.
Not New Cross - but Crystal Palace.
As for California, my wife and I went on a month's long trip along the Pacific Coat Highway and then on to Las Vegas. Best holiday I've ever had but there's no doubting that California is full of irrational nut jobs. Nice people but enemies of reason.
