“St. Louis is building a reputation for being a home for innovative businesses. But this week, innovation of a different sort took place – an innovative business practice. Instead of swiping a credit card or depositing funds into a bank account, Paradigm New Media paid Articulate Ventures the equivalent of $3,000 in Bitcoin, a digital currency.
