In a way, I'm not surprised so few people heard about it. I didn't see one word of Bitcoin in the newspapers, TV news, and other traditional media over the summer here in Taiwan. Only in the last week or two have there been a couple articles about Bitcoin millionaires in Taiwan from their mining operations, that's largely been about it for Taiwan MSM. Taiwan must have 30 channels with news programs, easy. Yet none of them were touching this topic, while you have full dedicated hour long coverage dedicated to League of Legends players. Go figure.
Maybe WMall's Bitcoin initiatives will open it up more mainstream. When GoMaji (prepaid online restaurant website) or something like that accepts Bitcoin, we could have a quite different scene here. Taiwan people love to eat and drink, so if they can pay for their gastronomic hobbies in Bitcoin...

We just finished interviewing Chinese-speaking people on the street what they think about Bitcoin. Casual observations, nightlife enthusiasm, cyber security concerns, and high beginners curves for Bitcoin among Taipei locals.
