Bitcoin adaptation: Craigslist and Gold

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

The adaptation of cryptocurrencies is progressing. Recently, not only providers on Craigslist can choose to accept payments in Bitcoin & Co. APMEX, an online gold exchange, now accepts crypto payments.

The Craigslist ad marketplace provides a platform for services, jobs, housing, dating and discussions. The offer, which in addition to English also exists in German, French, Portuguese, Italian and Spanish, can now also be paid in Bitcoin. With 80 million ads per month, this is a high volume of traffic that can potentially be handled through the crypto market.

Providers of services were able to select the acceptance of crypto currencies before in their advertisements. However, the operators have also implemented the option in the platform. With such a large service provider, the possibilities for using cryptocurrencies continue to increase. Another interesting signal, however, comes from a completely different corner: the gold trade.

As it turns out, most respond to the current boom of cryptocurrencies in one way or another. While Steam, for example, is currently excluding its acceptance, tomorrow we are facing an involvement with the stock market with the introduction of crypto-futures. However, the fact that APMEX now also carries gold into the cryptocurrencies can always be interpreted as an interesting signal.

That is not the same with Indonesia. The central government warns the community not to use crypto because the government considers it as the main cause of decreasing value of Rupiah exchange. But i think the government doesn't know that crypto can reduce inflation. Thanks.

No but they will soon :-)

I think sooner is better. I believe cryptocurrency can decrease poverty level in Indonesia as long as the community get enough knowledge on it

You are right, this news can serve as another launch of the rise in prices for Bytkoin. Thank you for telling me about it. Good luck to you and good.
