Title: [2014-08-20] coinfire: Australians Love Bitcoin Bill Pay Post by: LiteCoinGuy on August 20, 2014, 03:19:52 PM Australians Love Bitcoin Bill Pay
Brisbane-based startup Living Room of Satoshi reports that Australians have paid $150,000 of everyday household bills with Bitcoin in the three months since it launched. http://coinfire.cf/2014/08/20/australians-love-bitcoin-bill-pay/ Title: Re: [2014-08-20] coinfire: Australians Love Bitcoin Bill Pay Post by: Chef Ramsay on August 20, 2014, 04:39:54 PM It'll be interesting to track the progress of these guys and see if they're able to branch out to other countries as time goes by. Also, we'll see how the banks and older payment systems take to the increases in alternative payment methods.

Someone with ballz should open a bank for BTC businesses and take away the powers of these suites. >:( Once banks start to loose big clients, they will have to mind shift their attitude towards BTC It only take one bank to do this, the BTC community will support them and the others will follow or die away slowly.

Funny, I just read in another post that Australian government ruled that bitcoin is not a currency :-)
You pay with it, you exchange it, it has value, but it is not a currency according to the Aussie Tax office. |
