Bank of Korea Relaxes Negative Stance on Bitcoins

“The BOK said on December 3 that it made a report on bitcoins and is pondering a measure to open  the virtual money to the public. The report however includes a negative opinion on the possibility of its use as a future currency.   There are no stores in Korea that accept bitcoins except Korbit, which was established in April this year, specifically to facilitate trading in bitcoins. Bitcoins are only used for investment purposes, not for the trade of goods.  Under such circumstances, a Paris Baguette in Incheon City started to accept bitcoins and developed a tablet application for bitcoin settlement.”
