Latest News on Business

When we talk about the role of Bitcoin (BTC) or blockchain in business, we are talking about either business ventures building blockchain/cryptocurrency systems, products or infrastructure; or the integration and adoption of cryptocurrency in existing enterprises as a supported payment method.

Stay tuned as we chronicle blockchain and cryptocurrency’s shifting role in the world of business.
