Bitcoin shoutout in today's epic xkcd comic

[jga]

The link is here: http://xkcd.com/1110

The text is: "I'm not saying our Bitcoin-only island nation was a bad idea, but we really should've secured internet access before we left."

I can't tell you how to find it because I got super lost before I stumbled across it, but somewhere top-middle-left? Happy hunting.

EDIT:  I found the starting point... to get to the Bitcoin reference, head left for... like... a while.

EDIT #2:  You'll probably have more fun exploring, but here's a direct link to the relevant tile for the lazy and/or busy. http://imgs.xkcd.com/clickdrag/1n9w.png

I remember when I first learned about bitcoins, I saw a bitcoin donation address for xkcd. I am not sure if he still accepts coins, will search later.

I don't get all the references. I know that the one about not being sick but being well its the theme tune to "Peep show". Which is an awesome series btw

[hannesnaude]

Useful resource.

Needs some additions though. Their explanation for the bitcoin island at the moment is that it references the principality of sealand  .

Not to mention the fact that they have no clue who pirate or goat is.

lolz   I went to the right first and thought the landscape would resemble the bitcoin price chart
