An error was made in the UniBank/Phantom Exchange press release which
indicated that DigiFrancs were backed by a store of 16 oz Diet Coke cans.
There are of course no 16 oz cans, but rather 12 oz cans.
UniBank regrets the error.

10 cases == 240 cans right? or is it 120?

The question remains -- how many df's per 12 oz (I assume) can of
coke? I also assume you mean cans of diet coke, rather than Diet Coke
(brand, and possibly empty) cans. So, how much aluminun, and how much
Diet Coke brand soft drink is 1 df exchangeable for?
