I think it absolutely matters. If you're an average person, hell, even if you have above-average intelligence, the technology can seem pretty opaque. If on top of that, you have lots of people who did nothing wrong (other than put real money into this) lose there shirts I can't see it ever being widely accepted and used as an actual currency when it's barely that today.
