We've just received out dev kit in the mail as one of the chosen teams. $100 preloaded onto a microSD and a USB connector. The packaging is slick, the backing is solid, and if the right consumer product/market fit hits, this will be the first of many. Governments want to get rid of cash, despite our concerns on privacy and anonymity. One of these will hit, and I'm betting that backed by a stable economy like Canada, this one has the best shot at it. It's suggestive, as well, that the prizes are gold bullion, to subtly infer the stability of the gold standard.
