    Yes this is indeen happening. Despite the effort to move to digial paiment is a good idea, bitcoin is just ridiculous. Hardly anyone will use it and the project is going to cost more than the accumulated bitcoins transfered to the gouvernment.

    The government of a small city called Zug in Switzerland now accepts Bitcoin for payments of up to 200 CHF (around 200$). There for they are the fist government in the world to accept a krypto currency as a payment method. This decision doesn't come from nowhere as there are over 15 companies in the area specialized in digital financial service. Some even speak about krypto valley at the lake of Zug.
     
    This is a really important step because many governments around the world are currently investigating krypto currencies as a payment method.
