Ps- we are throwing Andreas Antonopolous off the Bungy Bridge for a charity drive. The highest donator gets to physically push him off the edge!
What's that about?  :o

Awesome news guys.  When I was in Queenstown last year, I thought it would be ripe for BTC adoption.  The whole town runs off backpackers and tourists.
