There were lots of attempts to build digital currencies before Bitcoin: DigiCash ('89), Beenz (98), Flooz (99), e-gold (98), 1mdc (01), e-Bullion (01). Some even tried to anonymously create underground (Tor only) currencies like eCache (2007).

Life cycle of new ideas 1. Flash of insight 2. Simple explanation of essence 3. Formalization: departure from intuition 4. Professionalization: detail, citations 5. Mainstreamification: metaphors, summary Learning often feels like starting at #5 , searching for a path back to #1
