“The Bitcoin Foundation, the de facto trade group for the emerging virtual currency, is embarking on an international expansion. The announcement sounds like something out of a sci-fi novel, describing a sort of United Federation of Planets for the virtual currency, ready to ‘protect, standardize, and promote the use of Bitcoin worldwide.’ The foundation has partnered with the Bitcoin Embassy of Canada and the Bitcoin Association of Australia as the inaugural chapters in its new ‘International Affiliate Program.’ It’s opening an office in London and is engaged in talks with Bitcoin organizations in India, Argentina, China, Germany, and the Netherlands.”
