Lomond School接受比特幣支付，成為英國第一所私立學校。

蘇格蘭的一所私立學校Lomond School宣布，可以用比特幣支付學費，這使其成為英國第一所接受加密貨幣付款的私立學校。

A private school in Scotland is now accepting Bitcoin for tuition fees, becoming the first in the UK to introduce crypto payments. The new feature will be available from the Autumn 2025 session.

蘇格蘭的一所私立學校現在正在接受比特幣支付學費，成為英國第一個引入加密貨幣付款的人。新功能將從2025年秋季會議開始。

The headmaster of Lomond School made the announcement at the Cheatcode Bitcoin conference, where he suggested that other schools could follow suit and that parents could use crypto to pay their fees instead of the usual bank transfer.

Lomond School的校長在作弊碼比特幣會議上宣布了這一消息，他建議其他學校可以效仿，父母可以使用Crypto支付費用，而不是通常的銀行轉讓。

According to reports, parents had requested to pay tuition fees with crypto because many were living overseas and didn’t want to pay the currency exchange fees, which can often be expensive and cumbersome. The headmaster also considered that overseas students, especially those who are tech-savvy and familiar with digital assets, may be interested in the option.

據報導，父母要求向加密貨幣支付學費，因為許多人在海外居住並且不想支付貨幣兌換費，這通常很昂貴且繁瑣。校長還認為，海外學生，尤其是那些精通技術且熟悉數字資產的學生，可能對該選項感興趣。

“For generations, this school has nurtured enquirers, thinkers, communicators and open-minded risk-takers. We were the first boarding school in Scotland to house boys and girls in the same roof. More recently, we moved away from the Scottish Government’s SQA curriculum and introduced the International Baccalaureate, a globally-renowned qualification favoured by universities and employers throughout the world,” wrote Claire Chisholm, headmaster at Lomond, in a blog post.

“對於幾代人來說，這所學校培養了詢問者，思想家，溝通者和開放的冒險者。我們是蘇格蘭的第一所寄宿學校，在同一個屋頂上安置男孩和女孩。最近，我們離開了蘇格蘭政府的SQA課程，蘇格蘭政府的SQA課程，並介紹了國際學士學位，並在全球範圍內受到了國際資格，並在全球範圍內熟悉了整個世界的畢業生，這是整個領域的畢業生。洛蒙德，在博客文章中。

Lomond School plans to implement the Bitcoin strategy in phases because it wishes to do more with crypto in future projects. But for starters, it will allow parents to pay with Bitcoin, only to convert the crypto to Great Britain Pounds (GBP) to avoid price volatility. This will ensure that their first crypto project will be stable and can handle payments by patents with minimal fuss.

Lomond School計劃在階段實施比特幣戰略，因為它希望在未來的項目中與加密貨幣一起做更多的事情。但是對於初學者來說，這將允許父母用比特幣付款，只能將加密貨幣轉換為英國英鎊（GBP），以避免價格波動。這將確保他們的第一個加密項目將是穩定的，並且可以通過最少的大驚小怪的專利處理付款。

Two exchanges, CoinCorner and Musquet, which are both regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), will be facilitating the Bitcoin transfers. The coins will be exchanged directly into GBP, which not only avoids crypto volatility but also abides by UK standards, requiring an authorised platform to handle payments. For instance, handling the transactions themselves may incur further regulation for the private school because the UK has been strengthening rules concerning online payments to avoid scams and fraudulent activity.

由金融行為管理局（FCA）監管的兩個交易所，Concorner和Musquet將促進比特幣轉移。這些硬幣將直接交換為GBP，這不僅避免了加密貨幣波動率，而且還遵守英國標準，需要一個授權的平台來處理付款。例如，處理交易本身可能會為私立學校提供進一步的法規，因為英國一直在加強有關在線付款的規則，以避免騙局和欺詐活動。

Chisholm chose the Cheatcode Bitcoin conference, held at Bedford, to announce the news. Former Prime Minister Liz Truss will be giving a speech shortly after on ‘saving the West,’ and the Winklevoss twins will be presenting on the Premier League.

Chisholm選擇了在貝德福德舉行的作弊碼比特幣會議，以宣布這一消息。前總理利茲·特魯斯（Liz Truss）將在“拯救西方”之後不久發表演講，而溫克爾沃斯（Winklevoss Twins）將在英超聯賽中介紹。

"At Lomond School, we prepare students for the future by instilling sound money principles. We teach the children about economic theories and the principles of free markets and liberty. Bitcoin is a great teaching tool for the school because it encompasses, in a very modern way, the economic principles we teach daily," said a spokesperson for Lomond School.

“在洛蒙德學校，我們通過灌輸良好的金錢原則來為學生做好準備。我們向孩子們講述了經濟理論以及自由市場和自由的原則。比特幣是學校的偉大教學工具，因為它以非常現代的方式包括我們每天教的經濟原理，” Lomond School的一位發言人說。

The school added that Bitcoin is a more inclusive form of money. People from less-developed nations can use digital money to transact with one another and people in far-away lands. It is also a fairer form of money because it gives people more access to banking. Rather than needing to use a bank, a person can use Bitcoin to pay for private school tuition fees and they can do so with just an internet connection.

學校補充說，比特幣是一種更具包容性的錢。來自欠發達國家的人們可以利用數字資金與彼此之間的人交易。這也是一種更公平的金錢形式，因為它使人們可以更多地使用銀行業務。一個人可以使用比特幣支付私立學校學費，而不是只需要使用銀行，而是只能通過互聯網連接來支付。
