German entrepreneur Kim Dotcom has unveiled his Bitcache wallet system, which he claimed would take bitcoin to the mass market. He also introduced sales platform Bitcontent using his MegaUpload 2 site. The new service is a direct response to the recent announcement by US authorities that they are seeking to shut down Megaupload, and will allow users of the site to buy goods with their digital currency. However, there was no explanation about how the platform would deal with sellers of pirated goods.
