That is right! I was at a hardware store last week and mentioned bitcoin to one of the guys working there. Long story short I sent him $5 of BTC and he saw the confirmation there in front of him! He was game enough to install the JAXX wallet there and then so I took advantage of the situation and gave him a little demo and something to keep. Now lets get segwit in so we can keep those little donations and demos in BTC! Lets scale!
Also a little at the end of this show I talk about cryptocurrency and how we handle it in Australia for the tax time coming up this year. Search the ATO website for tax treatment of crypto-currencies in Australia for the official info.
