“A Romanian lawmaker has announced that he will be accepting bitcoin donations during his run for presidency. So why did Remus Cernea decide to embrace bitcoin? He argues this is just the first step toward a transparently-funded campaign. He has already got his first donation from the owner of a Romanian Bitcoin trading platform, Horia Vuscan, reports Adevarul. Writing on his Facebook page, Remus Cernea said bitcoin is a ‘revolutionary currency’ as it does not depend on any state and is not issued by a central bank. ‘In general, it is already accepted in democratic countries with mature market economies,’ he said.”
