Odds of an MIT student producing or using a new application or seeking a way to monetize something interesting?  Maybe 5%.  

Odds of a homeless shelter resident producing or using a new application or seeking a way to monetize something interesting?  Maybe 0.0005%.  

That's why.

That plus, in my experience at least, giving money to a homeless person usually results in the purchase of drugs and/or alcohol.

Giving a new kind of money to a college student would likely inspire ideas.


AND drugs... thats at least two things  Cheesy
I don't think very much (if any at all) of the MIT bitcoin money will be used for (illegal) drugs. The students have too much to lose by risking using drugs while a student there.
