Being able to pay for a world-class tertiary education with Bitcoin was a dream of many but few believed that it would become a reality so soon,’ said Mr. Rossouw. ‘I am not surprised that it was the University of Nicosia, with their history of trendsetting and innovation who took the first step. I commend them on breaking the shackles of traditional payment barriers.'”
