Have a bitcoin wallet and need to use your bitcoin at any brick and mortor retailer? No problem, as BitPay has just launched BitPay Visa, which is a Visa debit card that can be loaded and reloaded using any bitcoin wallet. Incidentally, the Visa card can be loaded with direct deposit through your employer. You can also withdraw cash at any ATM.

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

The fees are somewhat comparable to what xapo is offering. But I can't find anything regarding the annual costs of the bitpay visa card. Perhaps because there aren't any. Xapo charges $12 per year where you get the first year free.

I'm sure their fees will be competitive and more players can bring the fees down even more. Looks like BitPay may be pivoting their business a little bit too. Hope it works and comes to Europe next!
