Litepay

Litecoin's Litepay may be launched this week! Litepay is a payment processor that uses Litecoin with a litepay debit card for use at business or atms!

The service provides value to two fundamentally different kinds of clientele for two different reasons. Firstly, it gives merchants an added incentive to begin accepting Litecoin because the payment processor assumes the risk of accepting the crypto — protecting merchants from market volatility. Secondly, it gives Litecoin holders more liquidity in the short-term with their debit cards.

Arise chickun!

Puertopia

Puerto Rico Hoooo!! News is crypto multimillionaires arelooking to make Puerto Rico their new Cryptopia. This is actually pretty incredible. They are looking to buy enough property to incorporate their own town that would use crypto as the currency and by the looks of it it's going to happen.

They want to build a crypto utopia, a new city where the money is virtual and the contracts are all public, to show the rest of the world what a crypto future could look like. Blockchain, a digital ledger that forms the basis of virtual currencies, has the potential to reinvent society — and the Puertopians want to prove it.
