CoinBridge Global Partners with a Major New York University To Make New York City Global Bitcoin Hub
Company Seeks Crowdfunding For Groundbreaking App Listing Bitcoin Merchants, Discounts.
Bitcoin has become the symbol for successful crypto currencies and it is only gaining steam. CoinBridge Global along with a yet to be disclosed University in New York City plans to make the Big Apple a global hub for bitcoin transactions beginning with a one-of-a-kind app.
“New York is already leading the way with the first ever bitcoin ATM,” CoinBridge co-founder Miles Dupree said. “Our goal is to help businesses understand and develop crypto currency transactions and this app is a big step in that direction.”
Many merchants in New York City accept Bitcoin, but few people know who they are and what benefits they may offer. The app will allow merchants to advertise their products and services and issue coupons and future sale opportunities. The app will also provide customer vouchers and any discounts those merchants are offering for bitcoin purchases. Merchants will be able know their customer market and provide better service from analytic information provided by CoinBridge Global.
The company is working with the university’s student body to develop and create the app. The goal is to educate not only merchants, but also the consumer about the advantages of bitcoin and other crypto currencies.
“Bitcoin is fast, cheap to use, and has a host of benefits for merchants and consumers alike,” Co-Founder Kurt Peterson said. “We can make NYC a worldwide leader for bitcoin transactions.”
CoinBridge Global is currently seeking crowdfunding for the app, which is set to debut in August.
