Just found this and thought it would be of interest!

'Cumbria University is to allow some students to pay their tuition fees with the digital currency, Bitcoin.'

Very unusual for UK to accept the Bitcoin,  as normally it will be quicker adopted in USA.

Based on what? That huge precedent of virtual currencies that predate Bitcoin? Oh, wait..
