“It would have been nice to get this attention in any other context. WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us.” - Satoshi Nakamoto

Ah, the good ol' WikiLeaks saga. When they started accepting Bitcoin donations, it sure stirred up a hornet's nest.
While the attention brought more folks to Bitcoin, it also drew in government agencies and regulators. Not exactly the kind of attention you want when you're trying to grow a new financial system.
But hey, no such thing as bad publicity eh? Just gotta roll with the punches!
