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..

That's great news. Bitcoin getting more popular

Yeah I thought so. I'd like to see what the conclusion of the classes are. Sounds interesting.

Just found this and thought it would be of interest!

Yeah, it's because the courses are related to it in terms of the economics of it all. Not a bad way to teach about it.
