Bitcoin is a digital currency, meaning it has no paper trace and lives entirely online. ‘Bitcoin was really born out of banking bailouts,’ says Michael Bliss with Vancouver Bitcoin Co-op. ‘It is the future of money, no doubt.’ The Bitcoin Co-op that Bliss co-founded is a local network for people interested in Bitcoins — traders, investors and merchants.”
