In reference to the bitcoin casino thread (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2782349). Bitcoin, or something like it, could spawn a whole industry of these types of semi-illegal sites. Where would you go to host a gambling site? Gibraltar? Canadian Native Reserves? Cayman Islands?

There are quite a few based in the Caribbean since it's awesome to live there and a short hop to the US. Only problem is the US has made it a habit of arresting visiting CEO's of these companies.

This will end up at the Supreme Court, the only question is when and how.
