Bitcoin debit card

The most awaited Bitcoin debit cards are about to be released by the end of June as Bitcoin vault Xapo has announced that it is on the verge of developing such a solution for Bitcoin users. Earlier, in March this year, after launching an insured, secure repository for big BTC investors, the company had announced for bringing up Bitcoin debit card as well.

The company had then announced that with the Bitcoin debit card that will be accepted anywhere in the rails of a card network, won’t be charged an additional fee as it is included in it. According to Wences Casares, founder of Xapo, the Xapo debit card will be accepted by any business in the world that accepts debit or credit cards from the bank’s card network partner.

Wences Casares is someone who has worked with several payments solution providers in the past and brings his experience for Xapo and according to him Bitcoin will be worth a million when it matures. Talking about the debit cards, he said that he would not identify the company’s bank partner or its card network.

Currently, a major problem with a lot of Bitcoin users is that they are unable to use the digital currency outside the tech-savvy early adopter category, and a debit product could increase adoption. Moreover, when many digital payment systems have issued plastic cards as a way to appeal to more consumers, it was just a matter of time for Xapo.
