BREAKING: ShapeShift Announces New Partnership with Bitcoin.com. More Interesting When You Consider How Long the CEO's Have Known Each Other.

in #bitcoin6 years ago


Bitcoin.com Now Allows Wallet Users to Exchange Bitcoin Core for Bitcoin Cash


I always find it interesting, from a Crypto 101 / History perspective when 2 OG's who have known each other since their younger days, and got into bitcoin and the cryptosphere in the earliest of days, partner up.

That is the case here again with Erik Voorhees (Shapeshift, on the left and Roger Ver - on the right)


This news broke just yesterday, officially so I am reporting on this for you, unedited -- right from the sources named here.

More info/links at the end of the post.

Shapeshift is an online, fast, currency exchange service.

From the official Shapeshift Blog: (Unedited)

One of the top questions our support agents get from new customers is “what type of wallet should I be using to keep my digital assets?” There are a plethora of options floating around the blockchain-sphere these days and we are excited to announce that a brand new kid has entered the ShapeShift block to allow for in-wallet exchanges.

We are pumped to announce that Bitcoin.com, the premier source for everything Bitcoin related, has integrated with our full API to allow Bitcoin.com Wallet user to exchange between Bitcoin Core (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH), and vice versa.

The Bitcoin.com Wallet app became available to customers in mid 2017 and to date more than 1.7 million wallets have been created on the platform. The ShapeShift integration expands the wallet’s features to better serve customers seeking to exchange their Bitcoin Core for Bitcoin Cash.

How to Exchange Between BTC and BCH with the Bitcoin.com Wallet?

The ShapeShift team loves this integration because it’s so easy and intuitive to use! First, you will want to click on the ShapeShift icon under the “Services” menu.

Let’s say you want to do a Bitcoin Core to Bitcoin Cash transaction. You will want to choose the Bitcoin Core wallet you would like to send your funds from and the Bitcoin Cash wallet you would like to send your funds to, check that the rate is what you would like, then click “shift”.

Next input the amount of Bitcoin Core you would like to exchange.

Now, check that the exchange details are correct, then send your funds and after your Bitcoin Core confirms on the blockchain, your Bitcoin Cash will arrive! It’s just that simple.

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.
This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.
I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.
Carry On.

Sort:  

Voorhees is a big-blocker and a long-time critic of Blockstream, so the partnership makes perfect sense. I'm surprised they didn't do it much sooner.

I could not add much to your statement, I feel the same.

This development is 10X the worse case scenario that Tether could bring, further adds to the confusion folks have to go through on a daily basis... We could see the start of tribal blockchain base on the interpretation of Satoshi original whitepaper

That has been here since before the hardfork creating Bitcoin Cash / BCH.

Nope.

I see you are being flagged for these spammy replies.

You will not last here like this, make decent comments.

thank's you for the guidance.
I will keep trying to make a decent comment

upvote amd resteemit done
keep it on

Wow! this is a new development for the crypto world and blockchain, i will need to celebrate this.

Interesting. Looks like the two have teamed up to provide an alternative to the Lightning Network.
