Title: [2015-11-24] DC Download: Bitcoin Debit Card, Circleback Cuts and 50 on Fire Tec
Post by: ezak on November 24, 2015, 04:25:08 PM
Will a debit card take bitcoin mainstream?

Popular bitcoin wallet Coinbase has come out with the first bitcoin debit card, the Shift Card. It basically acts like any other Visa debit card, but with the ability to use bitcoin without having to turn it into cash. The question now is whether this will be enough to make the niche cryptocurrency popular with everyone.

Clearly the writer have never heard of Xapo and or Bit-X and not even mentioning the other preloaded cards like e-coin and the like.
