More than 30 business outlets in Agnes Water and the City of 1770 in Central Queensland are currently receiving crypto currency as a means of payment. People in the coastal city call themselves the first "digital currency-friendly" tourist city in Australia.
The goal is to attract an international tourist market niche, which can pay for various products and services with digital currencies such as bitcoins that can be converted to Australian dollars.
Local real estate agent Gordon Christian said he had gained the support of local entrepreneurs to embrace digital currency technology into their city to boost key industries in their region of tourism.
Gordon Christian said the strategy was aimed at attracting more tourists to the area and attracting tourist alternatives.
Its nice to see that the Australia easily adapt bitcoin , It helps people on travelling wherever they want to. This strategy helps the people who lives in Australian and even tourist. I hope this can inspire other country so they dont ban bitcoin , because bitcoin gives so many opportunities and even help the economy to rise.
