“Yes, the Internet Archive. The outfit that so diligently records our web history also runs its own bank — The Internet Archive Federal Credit Union, or IAFCU, based out of New Brunswick, New Jersey. And when Hockenhull needed somewhere to turn, Internet Archive founder Brewster Kahle gave him the means to keep his company alive. Since then, the IAFCU has taken on a half-dozen Bitcoin businesses, such as BitBox, giving them a critical link to the U.S. financial system. The Internet Archive’s role as the backer of one of the country’s most Bitcoin-friendly financial institutions is a bit of an unlikely tale.”
