Brooklyn, NY — The Scottish Kilt Shop has announced that their E-Commerce store will now accept bitcoins for purchases and will provide a special incentive for customers who choose to pay with the currency. Bitcoins are a type of Digital Currency that was introduced to the financial market in 2009. The currency is generated through a process called mining and can be purchased through bitcoin exchanges and certain financial institutions.

By the end of August 2013, there were more than $1.5 Billion in bitcoins circulating on the Internet.
