I'm less excited about cryptocurrencies than you are. What happens when SHTF and you can't get online? What happens if some bug is lurking in the code which allows a clever hacker to generate unlimited coins? I've worked as a professional programmer and have seen many bugs pop out that had been missed for long periods of time. Maybe Bitcoin and others are bulletproof and maybe we won't experience SHTF, but I would not choose to put any of my wealth, such as it is, there.
