:00:00. > :00:00.for tomorrow's much of the day Kickabout, we will tell us

:00:00. > :00:10.everything we need to know about the transfer window. On the brekkie menu

:00:11. > :00:13.this Friday - We find out how Britain's first astronaut is

:00:14. > :00:14.preparing for space. And the seriously extreme moves from the X

:00:15. > :00:26.Games. First this morning, members of the

:00:27. > :00:29.Syrian government and the opposition, who want them out of

:00:30. > :00:33.power, will meet face to face for the first time today, to try and

:00:34. > :00:37.reach a peace agreement. The war in Syria's been raging for three years

:00:38. > :00:40.now and has killed over 100,000 people. The peace talks began in

:00:41. > :00:43.Geneva in Switzerland on Wednesday, but so far there have been angry

:00:44. > :00:45.speeches and accusations from both sides that the other side caused the

:00:46. > :00:58.conflict. For lots of you it's the ultimate

:00:59. > :01:02.job - becoming an astronaut. Well, for Major Tim Peake, his dream will

:01:03. > :01:04.soon become a reality. Major Tim is Britain's first official astronaut,

:01:05. > :01:06.and he's training now for his mission to the International Space

:01:07. > :01:39.Station next year. Good luck. We all know what money

:01:40. > :01:43.looks and feels like - but could all that be about to change? Bitcoin is

:01:44. > :01:47.a form of digital money that adults can buy online, and it's causing a

:01:48. > :01:53.big fuss in the technology world. So what is it, and is it the future?

:01:54. > :01:58.Ayshah has been finding out. You won't need to keep them in a

:01:59. > :02:05.purse or a piggybank. We are talking about bitcoin. It is a type of

:02:06. > :02:10.money. What makes it different is it does not look like these or these.

:02:11. > :02:15.Instead, bitcoin is a sequence of numbers and letters created by

:02:16. > :02:22.computer. The easiest way to get hold of these special sequences is

:02:23. > :02:26.to buy them online. You can use them when shopping on some websites and

:02:27. > :02:32.in places like this cafe in east London. The customer would comment

:02:33. > :02:36.to the shop. They would choose something. We would put the amount

:02:37. > :02:42.into our phone. That would generate a cold, which you would scan and it

:02:43. > :02:47.would be deducted from your account. Why not stick to the money we're to?

:02:48. > :02:57.No bitcoin is money you can use anywhere, all around the world

:02:58. > :03:00.without having to pay the cost. When you find somebody who will accept

:03:01. > :03:05.it, it is simple. Not everybody agrees that bitcoin is a good idea.

:03:06. > :03:10.Some people are worried that if your computer or smartphone gets hacked,

:03:11. > :03:14.your bitcoin could be stolen. Customers who use it already say it

:03:15. > :03:19.is designed to be safe and secure. The big problem is that they cannot

:03:20. > :03:23.use bitcoin in many places yet. But more online shops are planning to

:03:24. > :03:27.use them. Whether it is bitcoin or another form of digital money, it

:03:28. > :03:30.looks like we would be hearing a lot more about it. One day we could be

:03:31. > :03:34.saying goodbye to cash like this. In about an hour, we'll see two of

:03:35. > :03:38.the all-time greats in men's tennis - Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer -

:03:39. > :03:40.do battle at the Australian Open tennis in Melbourne. Between them,

:03:41. > :03:45.they've won 30 Grand Slam singles titles. The winner will face

:03:46. > :03:49.Stanislas Wawrinka, in the Men's Singles Final. This is their first

:03:50. > :03:58.in a Grand Slam, since the Aussie semi-finals of two years ago.

:03:59. > :04:02.He has been tough to play against, no doubt. I am happy to get the

:04:03. > :04:08.chance to play him in a Grand Slam again. I don't remember the last

:04:09. > :04:17.time. The head-to-head record is in his favour. I am looking forward to

:04:18. > :04:21.hearing what the boys have two say and then we will prepare. I hope to

:04:22. > :04:25.get a win. Now we're used to see this guy on

:04:26. > :04:29.stage performing One Direction's hits. But next month we'll be seeing

:04:30. > :04:32.Louis from 1D swapping his mic for his footy boots. - he's set to make

:04:33. > :04:43.his debut for Championship side Doncaster Rovers. Next up, here's a

:04:44. > :04:47.sport you definitely won't see at the Sochi Winter Olympics. This is

:04:48. > :04:51.Colten Moore from the US. He's just won gold at the X Games in Colorado

:04:52. > :04:53.for his daredevil moves in the Snowmobile Freestyle Competition.

:04:54. > :04:59.Colten had to perform a series of stunts like this backflip to take

:05:00. > :05:01.the top prize. That's all from me - I'm back in about half an hour.
