Title: [2015-07-03] Australian Westpac Banking Corp Invests in Coinbase
Post by: tyz on July 03, 2015, 05:53:39 PM
Bitcoin companies are attracting interest from all aspects of life, including the financial sector it is trying to disrupt.  Rather than fighting the winds of change, financial institutions are slowly warming up to the idea of using blockchain technology for their own business model.  As a result, Bitcoin companies will sometimes receive an investment from unlikely partners.

As with some of the smaller the Asian countrys, Australia is leading the development in adaptation and investment in associated companies.

It has been many articles about Australia, but still I have not seen any really plausible explanation to why Aussies are so pro-BTC.

Does anyone have a link going a little deeper on that subject?
