Bitcoin could be used to pay for Bills,load and for travel in the Philippines

[sHeRiLyN1618]

Use Bitcoin for as normal currency in the Philippines ; you can perform bank payments, online shopping through digital currency and can use that local wallet for receiving Bitcoin and cashout into fiat. At Philippines cryptos like Bitcoin are used as a trusted mode of transaction. 🙂 🙂

It's a good thing Bitcoin adoption in the Philippines I think that country can be a pioneer in the use of Bitcoin in many other countries as well. Seeing the benefits obtained is certainly more useful in daily activities.

The central bank of the philippines also reportedly approved 10 additional cryptocurrency exchanges and a major bank has already installed a bitcoin recently giving a needed boost for cryptocurrency adoption in that southeast asian country. Well-known local bitcoin wallet provider, coins.ph, offers services including airfare that include bitcoin payment and is increasingly used by more filipinos when jts come to buying bitcoin and selling bitcoin.

[Wayan_Pedjeng]

I think that coins.ph is more like using a third party payment processor such as Bitpay or Gyft. First you load your account with Bitcoins and then the third party converts the coins to fiat. To make the payments, this fiat cash is used. So in a strict sense, we can't say that Bitcoins are being used for travel and shopping.

Here in the Philippines we could use our local wallet called coins.ph to buy load pay for our electric,water and credit card bills and even book for travel.

I am from the Philippines and it is true that you can pay bills and load using bitcoin using the coins.ph application where it is a wallet that you safely store all of your funds and bitcoin. But i still didn't use bitcoin to travel in the philippines because i don't have enough time.

I will allow you to use your bitcoin to pay for bills, weight and anything you need and I simply need to save progressively more bitcoin Grin

Notwithstanding I support with fiat to pay my expenses, and I won't change over most of my bitcoin to pay something since I have to use bitcoin as my fundamental endeavor right now.

I am sure that in the Philippines, various people will curious about bitcoin, and they will look for on the web about bitcoin. Likewise, if you have a partner who needs to consider bitcoin, you need to train them so they can seek after your way to deal with use bitcoin also.

People are interested in Bitcoin in many countries, but, unfortunately, many of them do not have a chance to get it. It is great that the Philippines work with the cryptocurrency. In my country, people also use BTC, but rarely.

[GelaiThePom]

I’m with you in this OP. I’m also from the Philippines and sometimes I also use bitcoin to pay for some bills when I’m short on fiat. I’m using coins.ph for my Philippines account and I’m using Bittreo for my international transfers.

[jerrison]

Its a very good one i must confess bitcoin is been accepted in most countries i just cant wait it will be approved and accepted in my own country too but still i can pay with fiat if i am short of bitcoin or can also alternate it which ever wya thanks

Not many exchange sites provide that service that can pay bills, load and for travel with cryptocurrency. I think it's very good for crypto users. In my country, the exchange site is just a trading place, to pay for these fees, we can only use third party services.

Well, it is really great having these exchange wallets in our country. We can even transact our BTC to our saving account in banks here in our country though the banks will receive it as a fiat and not a BTC but it is fine since it is free of charge. No fees being paid to them. The only fee I know in coins.ph is converting BTC to PHP and other things like load and buying money for steam wallet and other gaming platforms. Some money pickups also require fees.

Same is the case with my country.
Mot much adoption and not much awareness.
A few excagnegs and p2p sites which is basically used for trading. There isn't a proper mechanism to pay through btc or cryptos. Not many third party apps are available too.

[black_magic]

Since bitcoin is a form of electronic cash where you can use in different transactions. It is a good opportunity that we can use it in a form of itself without converting into peso with a possibility that its price cannot be lessen by some point, if it could be possible. Furthermore, in btc you can earn also by means of different ways you can browse it in the internet for more details.

[nara1892]

that's a good thing, even though it's common in some countries
but I prefer to hold it for the long term rather than using it for bills and such

[Ailmand]

It is good to know that a lot of countries are starting to be aware of crytocurrency. Using coins.ph in our country is really convenient. We get rebates and discounts too if we use the web wallet to pay bills nd utilities.

[flash101k]

That's a great step towards adoption of BTC. This helps in taking BTC to every household. People will know about it and hence, some percentage will even come in cryptos. Bitcoin needs use cases for the future growth and such steps are highly appreciated. Where countries are banning the use of BTC, Phillipines is making an appreciable impact.

It's not as great as you think. A YouTuber has experienced the challenge of using Bitcoin to pay off the costs in 24 in Philippines. But he has encountered a lot of difficulties because if you travel by taxi you cannot use Bitcoin to pay. Some other services are also unable to use it, Bitcoin-accepting services are very limited in this country.

[Remainder]

If I where you, I will not use my bitcoins in paying load, bills and travel tickets because having bitcoin is a rare case so if you just used it to just paying water bills or some load it will useless. But other coins or some coins you can use it to pay load or bills but you need to exchange it first in darb so that you can pay your coins on your e wallet, just like coins.ph,gcash,paymaya etc.

And also the price of btc is starting to go up, so better HODL it till you see the moon. As long as the government are allowing this platforms to be use as one of the tool for convenient transactions like paying bill, the crypto currencies and use of it shall gain popularity and leads to acceptance by the general public.

I hope this will happen also in the whole asian nation because philippines is more luckier than any other country in asia for having a government in which neutral to cryptocurrency and bitcoin can be bought and accumulate in many areas,with ATMs installed in strategic locations,with wallets in local forms that can convert fiat to crypto and crypto to fiat.and some stores that can buy also bitcoin one of luckiest

You are right, we hope that this will happen not only to whole asia continent but also for the whole world because having these kind of features for using bitcoin is an awesome thing to have. Just imagine having this for the whole world then that would be awesome because the whole world can start being cashless because of this features.

Well of course we couldn't pay everything with Bitcoin yet ,
But we could always find a way to use it if you really want to ride a taxi and pay online you could use Grab .
Top up your Grab account using Coins there is always a way you just need to figure out something.

[jak3]

well, that's a very good start of using and accepting payments in bitcoin. This type of behavior is very important for the whole world to see. The Philippines will become a great example for others that bitcoin can be used in the exchange of real money as if it has the same value as money. I wish my country also have some number of merchants who accept cryptocurrency payments. but all we have is like 10-12 merchants all total. that's extremely low when we are trying to change the whole country.

[Mandoy]

This is not a new thing. Coins.ph was already operating since 2014 in the Philippines and I heard that it was the number one and mostly used bitcoin wallet application in that area. There are some features such paying your bills, buying mobile load, sending money to a remittance center and cashing out and cashing in your bitcoins. But even it is through this activities are being used by crypto enthusiasts and not being used by many. Stores does not accept bitcoin payments and only online merchants are accepting. Cryptocurrency is very young in the Philippines and it is thanks to coins.ph that the use of bitcoin become convenient.
