“Jeremy Hansen of Berlin, Vermont, a professor of computer science and independent candidate for Vermont’s State Senate representing Washington County announced today that he would accept campaign contributions in the form of Bitcoin, a digital currency, after verifying the digital currency’s appropriateness with both the Vermont Secretary of State’s office and the Vermont Attorney General’s office. Josh Jones, co-founder of DreamHost and creator of Bitcoin Builder, created a custom system for Hansen’s campaign and offers it to any other political candidate interested in accepting Bitcoin.”
