Title: 2013-03-26? BBC/NPR segment about bitcoins, reported by MY MOM
Post by: dacoinminster on April 01, 2013, 11:20:34 PM
I don't know what segment she heard, but my mom just emailed me that she heard about bitcoins on her way home from work on NPR. Apparently it was a BBC segment with a bunch of interviews. Anybody know which segment that might be?

For me, bitcoin just crossed another major milestone  :)

She's convinced I'm risking jail time by working on next-gen bitcoin protocols, and I'm not totally convinced she is wrong about that.

Currently BBC iPlayer TV programmes are available to play in the UK only, but all BBC iPlayer Radio programmes are available to you.

Thread updated to have a tentative date when the interviews were most likely first broadcast :)
