.com, a pioneer in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency space since 2015, has integrated a debit card into its wallet, gaming, news, and education platform that allows users to seamlessly spend cryptocurrency anywhere Mastercard (NYSE:)® is accepted. The V-Card is now available on the Bitcoin.com app and the Bitcoin.com website here.
“This is a game-changer for cryptocurrency holders with their own deposits who are looking for the flexibility and convenience of traditional financial systems without compromising their principles and without the risk of being exposed to the risks associated with a CEX,” said Bitcoin.com CEO Corbin Fraser, referring to the numerous closed centralized cryptocurrency exchanges (CEXs) where millions of users have lost their funds due to hacks, bankruptcies, and fraud.
About V-CardThe V-Card aims to bridge the gap between digital currencies and conventional finance by allowing users of the self-escrow, multi-chain Bitcoin.com Wallet app to top up their card with popular cryptocurrencies like BTC, BCH, ETH, USDC, USDT, and the Bitcoin.com ecosystem token VERSE. Once topped up, users can spend their balance at millions of merchants around the world. The self-escrow solution gives users constant access to their funds, protecting them from the failure of centralized cryptocurrency exchanges.
