French explorer\u00a0Faysal Hanneche is expected to be the first person to make a Bitcoin transaction from the South Pole<\/a> (not that many monetary transactions happen there) this month.<\/p>\n

Sirius Money\u00a0—\u00a0a Danish Bitcoin exchange — is sponsoring Hanneche, allowing him to bring a Bitcoin sticker with him and perhaps even a Bitcoin flag if Hanneche can raise more than 15BTC before departing from South Africa next week on November 5th (and if a flag can even be made before then).<\/p>\n

Just before leaving the\u00a0Amundsen-Scott base station at the South Pole and heading to Chile,\u00a0Hanneche will buy a pizza with his Bitcoins. Yes, pizza. No word on who’s delivering.<\/p>\n

The transaction will take place thanks to a satellite internet connection, and is designed to prove the versatility of the digital currency.<\/p>\n

Back in April, Hanneche successfully ventured to the North Pole. His entire trip is expected to cost just over $80,000.<\/p>\n

Good luck to Hanneche!<\/p>\n
