| Bitcoin start-ups in North America have received the lion's share of the digital currency's venture-capital investments, drawing $US98.6 million ($108 million) to date, according to a report from researcher Aite Group.
Investors have funded 19 Bitcoin start-ups in the region, compared with nine in Asia totalling $US13.3 million and three in Europe, with $US5.6 million, according to the report by Boston-based Aite, which surveyed merchants, banks, regulators and Bitcoin companies.
