Sydney

23th September 2014

Brisbane startup Living Room of Satoshi was awarded “Best Pitch” as voted by attendees at the “Technology & Innovation – the future of payments” conference at Sydney’s Hilton hotel on Friday.

Four of Australia’s brightest payments start-ups competed on stage, highlighting their unique selling points in a race against time.

Live polling from audience members decided the outcome, which included banking and payments industry representatives.

Co-founder and CTO Daniel Alexiuc said “Attendees reported that they were impressed with the live demo, highlighting the speed and ease of use of bitcoin bill payments. The funny cat video didn’t hurt our chances either.”

Living Room of Satoshi is a free online service that enables payment of any BPAY-enabled bill using bitcoin; including phone bills, electricity bills, school fees, credit card and tax payments.
