+ <div class="body"><p>As I continue to explore
<a href="http://www.bitcoin.org/">BitCoin</a>, I've starting to wonder
what properties the system have, and how it will be affected by laws
and regulations here in Norway. Here are some random notes.</p>
<p>The process of creating new BitCoins is called mining, and it is
CPU intensive process that depend on a bit of luck as well (as one is
competing against all the other miners currently spending CPU cycles
-to see which one get the next lump of cash. The "winner" get 50
+to see which one get the next lump of cash). The "winner" get 50
BitCoin when this happen. Yesterday I came across the obvious way to
join forces to increase ones changes of getting at least some coins,
by coordinating the work on mining BitCoins across several machines
machine to participate there yet, but have seen that running on ones
own for a few days have not yield any BitCoins througth mining
yet.</p>
+
+<p>Update 2010-12-15: Found an <a
+href="http://inertia.posterous.com/reply-to-the-underground-economist-why-bitcoi">interesting
+criticism</a> of bitcoin. Not quite sure how valid it is, but thought
+it was interesting to read. The arguments presented seem to be
+equally valid for gold, which was used as a currency for many years.</p>
