Bitcoin is the currency of the Internet: a distributed, worldwide, decentralized digital money. Unlike traditional currencies such as dollars, bitcoins are issued and managed without any central authority whatsoever: there is no government, company, or bank in charge of Bitcoin. As such, it is more resistant to wild inflation and corrupt banks. With Bitcoin, you can be your own bank.

Subreddit History Est. April 6 2013, r/NZBitcoin was New Zealand's genesis Bitcoin forum - providing a space for Kiwi Bitcoin enthusiasts to discuss and learn about Bitcoin fundamentals and technology.

On 3/09/22, r/NZBitcoin voted to open the doors to become a general cryptocurrency NZ subreddit. Subsequently r/BitcoinNewZealand was created as NZ’s BTC maxi commune.

On 28/08/24, r/NZBitcoin returned to focussing on Bitcoin only.
