According to recent reports, the popular Australian utility store called, On-The-Run has announced that it will soon provide customers the ability to perform payments using their Bitcoin holdings. The OTR store has made an alliance in popular crypto exchange, CryptoCom to allow customers to pay for not only goods, but also fuel and other digital services using Bitcoin, through its impressive 170 locations that are spread across the southern region of Australia.
