I' the guy who was sent to federal prison recently for "economic terrorism" by minting gold coins he called "Liberty Dollars". The Fed has a monopoly on creating money in the US, and doesn't like it when people try to compete.
Is that what happened to him? When? Please provide a source.
The bitcoin people aren't trying to compete with federal dollars, though, and they don't have any misleading instructions -- like suggesting that the middle people in their multi-level coin sales scheme misrepresent liberty numismatic coins as federal currency, which is what they were in trouble for IIRC.
