(If it's not obvious: Blind signature as such are solid but I wouldn't suggest anyone to give a cent to this sketchy project)
AFAIK (and I'd be thrilled to be proved wrong) we still haven't figured out how to solve double-spend using blind signatures without a blockchain and so the schemes I've seen so far invariably involve either that or a trusted mint and are therefore less interesting to use as currency.
Assuming you already have a base digital currency (like bitcoin), they can still be interesting on/as a higher layer.
