While I am searching for churches that readily accept bitcoin for donations, I realized that there are now some who seem to see the potential use of cryptocurrency in their financial operation (religious groups do need money as just like any other organizations).
"Father Rosado believes that
St. Johns the Evangelist is the first Catholic Church to accept bitcoins and he thinks virtual currency donations can be much more useful than those in fiat currencies. 'In theory, in the future, you could exchange bitcoins for any currency. It would be faster to move money around,' said Father Rosado."
"An
evangelical church in Zurich will begin accepting offerings in the cryptocurrency bitcoin. Digital currencies and the blockchain technology will change our daily lives more and more in the next years, Nicolas Legler, spokesperson for Zurich's ICF Church, told Swiss media."
Have you encountered a denomination near your area accepting bitcoin or cryptocurrency? Would you share the same idea to the denomination or faith you are a part of?
My first thought on this was like "How come they are so quick on adapting cryptocurrency?" I mean, they don't get involved in technology a lot but this was very surprising. In our country, donations are done by the nuns/sister handing the net-like cloth to us. So if this happens then we will just scan the qr code while we are singing our praises and sending our bitcoin? I don't see anything beneficial to this article honestly.
