Digital Monetary Trust was an anonymous internet banking system using electronic money.
It consisted of a three-layered computer system. Its function was to abstract the identity of the account owner from the accounts. That is, the account holders transfer money into the DMT network, which becomes the legal owner of the money. Then, the account holder can make a private DMT transfer to another account in the system,. The system is based on trust between the "bank" and the account holders, hence the name.
It was allegedly owned and maintained by James Orlin Grabbe and hosted on Dubai Internet City servers.

It has been my own cherished home. Twice before I have left it to discharge public duties and returned to it with gladness, as I hope to do again.”
