Portable

Alice and Bob should be able to walk away with their digital cash and transport it within alternative delivery systems, including non-computer-network delivery channels. The security and use of digital cash should not be dependent on any physical location. The cash can be transferred through computer networks and off the computer network into other storage devices. Digital wealth should not be restricted to a unique, proprietary computer network.
