Atlas Shrugged Now Accepting Bitcoin Payments
In Honor of Tax Day, Atlas Shrugged’s Online Forum Begins Accepting Bitcoin Payments

Los Angeles, California - Atlas Distribution Company announced today that it will accept Bitcoin payments in its Galt’s Gulch Online community forum.

Bitcoin is the first global, decentralized digital currency exchanged via the Internet from person to person without a middleman such as a bank or clearinghouse. Members of Atlas Shrugged’s “Galt’s Gulch Online” forum, can now pay for upgraded membership using Bitcoin.

“We’re very excited to finally accept Bitcoin as an alternative payment method,” said Associate Producer Scott Desapio, “The premise of Bitcoin is entirely inline with the principles of Atlas Shrugged so it’s a natural fit for us. We’re looking forward to doing a lot more with Bitcoin in the future.”

Galt’s Gulch Online is an Internet based forum where fans of Ayn Rand and Atlas Shrugged can share relevant news articles, creative works, videos, pictures, and get updates on the film, “Atlas Shrugged: Who is John Galt?”

The film is an adaptation of Ayn Rand’s 1957 novel, “Atlas Shrugged.” While nearly all of society’s most productive have mysteriously disappeared, the government continues to drive the economy to collapse by regulating and imposing its brutality on the country’s few remaining entrepreneurs. The film was directed by James Manera, produced by Harmon Kaslow and John Aglialoro, and stars Kris Polaha as John Galt and Laura Regan as Dagny Taggart. The film also includes Rob Morrow, Joaquim de Almeida and Greg Germann.

The novel is structured in three parts. The prior two parts of “Atlas Shrugged” are currently available on DVD & Blu-ray, iTunes, or streaming on Netflix and Amazon.

    Go BTC! Also on another note has anyone seen the Galt's Gulch development in Chile? They too are accepting BTC as payment for real estate at their development.
