DelvalleySilver and ShireSilver

[AGG]

Edit:

Here are two new startup community currencies I found while surfing Wikipedia.

ShireSilver is particularly interesting as they denominate their credit card size "money" in parts of grams of gold/silver. I expect the next step would be to have a magnetic strip on the back to swipe and have the card reloadable in grams of gold/silver.

AGG, you r past posts seem on topic but this one I'm not sure. Are you trying to making others aware of new dealers then this should be in the Dealers forum. If you are farming GIM for your own buisness venture that is not ok. Please clarify what purpose these links are being posted, thanks.

I accept that a brief introduction would have been in order. I posted late at night just after finding them. I'll add something to the OP. Thanks.

I assumed that 'digital gold' was in the Federal Reserve section of the forum to give a place to discuss alternatives to the Fed Reserve and since I posted in this heading; I expected that would be figured out.

Both of these new types of 'businesses' relate to the topic of using gold/silver for trade use as community currencies. They are somewhat similar to the liberty dollar concept; but also each is very different.
I'm not involved in any way at this time. I Found them when surfing Wikipedia for community currencies.

That being said; it would surely be appropriate for GIM to have a section to directly discuss Gold/Silver community currencies. That would seem directly in line with the statement: Gold IS Money.
