UK residents will soon be able to walk into one of 28,000 shops across the nation and pay for bitcoins in cash, thanks to a new deal forged by ZipZap.

The global cash payment network has partnered with a well-known but as-yet-un-named company in the UK. ZipZap plans to offer this service in partnership with its network of bitcoin exchanges worldwide.

This means that, from January, people will be able to buy bitcoins from a number of reputable exchanges through a single source, and pay in their neighbourhood with physical cash.
