    I just don't get it. It's not mentioned in the article, and I figure because the suspects didn't comment... however, did they think that bit coins are physical currency just like other coins? I mean did they expect to just run in there, grab a bag of coins like in those old cartoons and run off with the loot?

      In their planning, I'm sure the discussed how big a bitcoin was, how much one weighed, and how many would fit in a sack. Since they are traded online, no need to even find a fence.
