A Swiss town that is billing itself as a hub for the digital currency industry will accept bitcoin for some payments starting this summer, in what proponents call a worldwide first by a government body and a sign that "crypto finance" is growing in legitimacy.

The town council in northern Zug last week approved plans to accept payments of up to 200 Swiss francs (about $200) for municipal registration fees starting July 1, in what Mayor Dolfi Mueller called Wednesday an "experiment" aimed at making the digitally-minded town a pioneer in finance.

A Reputed Indian Newspaper covering Bitcoin, no matter if it's related to India, is a big deal for Bitcoin.

If it is an article about Bitcoin that Indians read in their daily newspaper, it is worth discussing here.
Most of the articles published about Bitcoin in Indian newspapers are generic and not particular to India as such.

Indian media should be encouraged to give bitcoin it's due coverage and help promoting Bitcoin in India.I commend Zebpay efforts in bringing media closer to bitcoin https://www.zebpay.com/spreading-bitcoins-in-indian-media/
