This will be first Australian jewellery retailer to accept Bitcoin's digital currency for online sales. Adelaide-based Shiels recently joined the list and its managing director Toby Bensimon said it has been receiving one or two transactions per day through the online currency.
Shiels has an online store that conducts a large number of transactions every day. The number of sales with Bitcoin is still very small, but Sheils believes that the future opportunities it presents are huge.
