Bitcoin has sustained its growing acceptance as a ‘complementary’ currency to the official monetary systems around the world as of mid-November 2017. In Australia, for example, an increasing number of Bitcoin automated teller machines (ATM) are being installed around the country due to its continuous popularity as an online currency.

Bitcoin is supposed to be fast, efficient and cheap and when things are not the way it should be then we have to do something about. It is just sad that in many cases, we are getting blinded by our own interests and then we throw common sense into the gutter.
Indeed, there is that growing interest for Bitcoin in Australia and this is just the tip of iceberg as the full potential can be staggering. Let us not waste this opportunity -- an opportunity to cement the market already established for Bitcoin and expand it gradually. Long live, Bitcoin in Australia!
