"Adrian - It's yet another solution looking for a problem at the moment."

Well, it's a platform, it may open ways to develop many solution to
many problems. For example, Ethereum seems the ideal platform to
develop idea futures and general prediction markets.

A PAM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Policy_Analysis_Market built on
Ethereum would permit betting real money (more precisely, cryptocoins
that can be concerted to real money) anonymously.

Robin, are you here and can you comment?
