Britcoin

An erstwhile exchange for trading Bitcoin in the United Kingdom.

Lord Grantham, the millennial heir to his family’s estate, and an avid headline reader/Twitter follower, became concerned about the potential downside of Brexit. He also “heard really good things” about Bitcoin.

Based on his knowledge of both, he wanted to put his family’s entire fortune into cryptocurrency, and decided upon Britcoin. Fortunately, his mother refused to sign-off, and when the Britcoin exchange became defunct, the Granthams were safe, solvent, and secure in their abbey.
