Ease of payment, low fees, and speed of transactions are some of the reasons why a preschool in New York City has opted for tuition payments in Bitcoin.
Co-founded and chaired by Marco Ciocca, Montessori Schools is an early childhood education program built upon the classical methods of Maria Montessori. After following the growth cryptocurrency industry over the years, the school decided to start accepting Bitcoin and Ethereum in May, eschewing the traditional credit card payment system due to the ease of payment, low fees, and security that cryptocurrencies offer.

This is good news. We need news like this every day. It started with businesses, now there are schools who accepts bitcoin as well, hopefully soon universities will follow to. This is going to be great for the bitcoin community as there are more people who will be aware of bitcoin and with that price increase is inevitable. Bigger gains for the people who keep on hodling.

This is indeed a good news which do really shows that bitcoin can really be accepted into these sectors or divisions which would really make an ease on paying up tuition fees on our education.They did already see the usefulness and the benefits on using bitcoin.It does lessen up the workforce that being done usually on these traditional days,Hopefully other institution would really consider this thing to be adopted sooner or later and bitcoin users would really love to see such thing for it to be adopted but im sure it would still takes time.

Yes.This step would be a great start that bitcoin is already conquering educational departments and soon we will be surprised  that our own universities here in our own country is already accepting bitcoin too for paying tuition fees and other school related payments.This just proves that bitcoin is so much useful and will to continue to expand its services as more number of people will be aware of bitcoin too.

This is a sign that the future is already here. There are more and more such news. I am also pleased that it is the educational institutions that are switching to bitcoin now, this is a serious step.

Yes this is perfect, it means that a lot of places and institutions like this one are much more advanced than other ones because they know that bitcoin is going to be the new era of payments.
It is good to hear that they are going to accept bitcoins, but you said that you dont have to pay too much taxes with it, but you are wrong.
Even six dollars for the transaction is still high for a monthly payment of $100, it depends in where you are paying the school, but it is not more than $100 in some places.

This is a good sign. If educators trust cryptocurrecy, then there's no reason for the other sectors not to accept bitcoins as payment. Parents would get curious about bitcoins, other schools would follow, media outlets would broadcast this new milestone.
