Cephas Expands Bitcoin Activities

Cephas Holding Corp (PINKSHEETS: CEHC) today announced that it has expanded its business activities in the bitcoin space.

In November 2013, Cephas announced it would accept bitcoin as payment for tuition in its education subsidiary. Since then Cephas has been exploring the development of additional bitcoin opportunities. The company has targeted the bitcoin vending market, consumer payments and an incubator as potential areas of activity.

The company has updated its website located at www.cephasbtc.com to highlight its new focus. 

"We believe there is a tremendous future in math based currencies. Cephas has a history in the payment space dating back to our work in consumer debit and prepaid cards. Bitcoin is a natural evolution of that work for us," added Peter Klamka, President.

Bitcoin is a consensus network that enables a new payment system and a completely digital money. It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network that is powered by its users with no central authority or middlemen. From a user perspective, Bitcoin is pretty much like cash for the Internet.
