- First Ethereum ATMs in Canada!
- Dave Chapman: No bubble Bitcoin goes to 10,000 USD!
- Use the Bug Bounty Program and earn Bitcoins!
Ontario-based Bitcoin and Ethereum ATM manufacturer LocalCoin ATM has begun to install the first Ethereum ATMs in Canada. Over the past few weeks, the company has already launched ATMs in Toronto, Brampton and Etobicoke. All ATMs should be installed in branches of the well-known supermarket chain Hasty Market.
Thanks to the LocalCoin Ethereum 2-Way ATMs, users and investors can now easily buy or sell Ethereum. The principle of the Ethereum machines is the same as with the already known Bitcoin machines. In order to purchase Ethereum, the users only have to enter a valid Ethereum address and pay accordingly in Fiat currency (CAD). In order to exchange Ethereum against Fiat, the user is shown an address on the display, where he has to transfer the ETH - the payment is made directly at the ATM in CAD.
An announcement from LocalCoin ATM:
Ethereum (ETH) is currently supported by almost all major exchange markets for digital currencies. However, in order to be able to trade in Ethereum, strict guidelines for the prevention of money laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) must be observed. The effort for the users to be released for the exchange markets is correspondingly high.
Users, however, who only want to purchase small amounts of the digital token, are usually afraid of the procedure and keep away from the digital currencies. Thanks to the Bitcoin and Ethereum ATMs, users can now quickly and easily acquire small amounts of Ethereum without entering their ID cards, accounting records, etc. Due to the payment and withdrawal limits, the ATMs still fulfill all the necessary requirements.
Bitcoin ATMs are already very popular in other countries, such as South Korea or Hong Kong, and form an important basis for mass acceptance. Only if the acquisition, the exchange and the applicability has reached an appropriate user friendliness can the path to the mainstream be paved.
Dave Chapman of Octogon Strategy, a private trading specialist from Hong Kong, believes that he sees a new line of investors. This new series could help the market of crypto-currency grow.
Chapman's company is specializes in commodity investments and digital currencies. According to his latest observation, he sees a new inflow of institutional investors to Octagon. These new investors could be responsible for new growth impulses in the future.
Bitcoin is currently experiencing a heated debate. From many sides one speaks in the digital currency of a bubble and the comparison to the Tulpenmanie or the Dot Com Bubble is not far away.
Chapman admits that the market is heated, but at the same time it has to do with other events.
Chapman told Bloomberg:
He also said:
The idea that Bitcoin could be around $ 10,000 by the end of the year, is for Chapman very much relevant.
He does not believe that it would be unthinkable to see a five-digit figure by the end of the year.
He also said:
Let us all just hope that he is right and we will have a very nice Christmas!
Many big tech companies and blockchain startups regularly write funds or rewards, so that IT professionals can look for errors in the program code, including Bitwala.
The Bitcoin startup from Berlin would like to offer the community the opportunity to participate in the further development of the start-up and in return receive Bitcoins. The aim of these so-called Bug-Bounty Program is that as many weak points as possible are detected by external users.
IT security in particular plays an important role here. Usually, the more reliable the found bug, the higher the reward.
The program focuses on the following areas:
- https://www.bitwala.com
- https://my.bitwala.com
- iOS and Android Apps
- API
You can find more information on the Homepage of Bitwala.
