Brisbane’s International Airport partnered with TravelbyBit to make the overhaul for travelers may use Bitcoin, Dash, and Ethereum. The change has quickly inspired more change. A local real estate agent started presenting the idea of accepting cryptocurrencies to local businesses in order to bring more tourism. “We started from the ground up, shared it with a couple of businesses and they were straight on board … I guess they were international travellers themselves and had heard of these types of payments,” and now the total businesses involved has reached 31.
