I've just read that Australia will start accepting bitcoin as a currency from July 1st. Also allowing bitcoin to be integrated better into the economy and offers no tax on it. Anyone else read about this?
Wow, this is certainly good news. However, I have also not been able to find any official statements about this from any major websites or government release papers. If this is true, it is certainly a good thing to be done and I really hope other countries will follow this example.
It certainly looks like the world is changing towards a unified currency that can be used across all countries, and changes like this are the first piece of the puzzle to making this come true.
