The MIT Bitcoin Project, which raised over $500,000 in bitcoin earlier this year, has finally gone live. The project hopes to enable MIT to continue
its long tradition as the preeminent educational institution at the forefront of emerging technologies, and establish MIT as a global hub where Bitcoin-related research, ideas, and ventures are studied, discussed, and developed.
MIT undergraduates have less than a week to claim $100 worth of bitcoin and must complete an initial survey prior to November 3rd to be eligible for the bitcoin giveaway.
