SINGAPORE - A Singaporean has made a Bitcoin donation to a gallery in Australia - one of the world's first cryptocurrency gifts to a non-profit arts organisation.
The three carbon-neutral bitcoins, worth about $140,000 when the donation was pledged, will go to the Northern Centre for Contemporary Art (NCCA) over three years. This is the largest single private donation the Darwin-based centre has received in its 32-year history.
