MELBOURNE – The Bitcoin Embassy concept is taking off in countries all across the globe. And on November 22, Australia joined the trend with the grand opening of two new embassies – one in Melbourne, and a second embassy in Perth.

What’s a Bitcoin Embassy?

A Bitcoin Embassy is an educational and technology center where you can ask Bitcoin questions, learn how to purchase Bitcoins, and go to regular meetups and seminars to learn and discuss anything related to Bitcoin, including: mining, point of sale integration, and general adoption.

The Melbourne premiere featured Andreas Antonopoulos as the event’s keynote speaker. The crowd was also treated to a presentation by BCF Capital Director, Liron ‘Chen’ Sheffer, and a live musical performance by singer song-writer “ Tatiana Coin.”

Both of the new embassies in Australia are offering free ‘Bitcoin 101’ workshops for members of the community. The workshops teach people unfamiliar with bitcoin how to make a wallet, obtain bitcoins, and begin making transactions.

Growing Movement

These new Australian Embassies join several existing centers already open and operating across the globe, in places such as: Israel, the United States, France, Spain, Germany, Argentina, Ukraine, and Canada. A new embassy will also soon launch in the Netherlands.

If you would like to attend the next Bitcoin workshop or are simply interested in finding out more information about the centers, make sure to check out their website (http://www.bitcoinembassy.io/) for locations and event times.
