usagi: Well the idea I have so far is to mark each private key (and address) with a locked flag,

usagi: Kind of like encrypting a whole wallet and still being able to maintain balance info

usagi: Five thousand miles away from Japan, in a city known
as "New York", a man ordered a cup of coffee. He paid for it with a dollar. Little did he know that due to the butterfly effect, five thousand miles away from New York in a country called "Japan", a young Englishman pretending to be Japanese had come up with a genius idea.
