FamilyMart's 3,000 convenience stores have adopted BitoEX Bitcoin wallet

FamilyMart and BitoEX Technology Company of the British Virgin Islands have teamed up again! Nearly 3,000 convenience stores under FamilyMart in Taiwan have taken the lead in introducing the BitoEX Bitcoin wallet from today. Consumers around the world can spend as much as they want in FamilyMart in Taiwan by using the BitoEX Bitcoin wallet. The new cooperation is expected to attract international backpackers, independent travelers, foreign business travelers and FamilyMart consumers. Both parties will become the largest physical Bitcoin channel merchants in Asia! Taiwan's upgrading to become the Asian digital currency clearing center is just around the corner.

     The Executive Yuan passed a financial technology innovation plan in early October to encourage the development of professional financial technology industries such as Bitcoin's blockchain technology. In addition, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced that Bitcoin would be listed as a commodity, indicating that the stable development of Bitcoin has been certified by governments of various countries, making "FamilyMart" pay attention to the future development trend of Bitcoin. FamilyMart said that last year, it cooperated with BitoEX to sell Bitcoin for the first time in the world, which was very popular. FamilyMart convenience stores have become a "pilgrimage site" for Bitcoin enthusiasts when they come to Taiwan. The Bitcoin wallet launched by BitoEX has also become the preferred wallet for players because of its ease of use and security. This year, the two parties are cooperating to build a Bitcoin wallet payment environment, especially using the international settlement capabilities of the BitoEX wallet, so that international people coming to Taiwan can share the fast and convenient payment method with FamilyMart consumers.

     BitoEX CEO Titan said that BitoEX Lab invested in the development of financial applications such as Bitcoin blockchain technology, international clearing mechanisms and BitoEX Bitcoin wallet last year, and achieved significant results. This time, FamilyMart took the lead in introducing BitoEX Bitcoin wallet for international payment integration, which successfully combined the retail industry with the field of financial technology, and has a more revolutionary innovative significance.

     According to the statistics of the Fair Trade Commission, the average consumption amount of convenience stores in Taiwan reached a record high last year. Not only did the total number of visitors set a new record of 2.91 billion, but it is also understood that the rate of foreigners such as international backpackers visiting Taiwan's convenience stores has also increased rapidly. International media have paid close attention to the Bitcoin purchase culture of Taiwan's FamilyMart convenience stores, including CoinDesk, CryptoCoins News, and the Wall Street Journal in the United States. Since September this year, after BitoEX built the FamilyMart convenience store payment function in the wallet, Bitcoin has added a consumption function; consumers only need to convert the Bitcoin in their wallets into cash coupons through Famiport, and they can easily consume the products in "FamilyMart" stores, which has created a great shock in the Bitcoin ecosystem!
