Making Cryptocurrency Real!
Today my cryptocurrency actually felt real for the first time, not just numbers on a screen but something physical that I could actually use.
Yesterday I finally recieved my Wirex Bitcoin debit card.
The card is very plain looking in a turquoise colour, there is no branding on it bar the Visa logo.
First I had to activate the card which you can do with the android or iPhone app by entering the last 4 digits and the expiry date. Once you've activated it they send you your pin by email.
Once your card is activated you have to exchange your bitcoin in your wirex wallet to the currency of your country, in my case Euros.
This is a quick process within moments your card is loaded up with euros, please note however there is a fairly hefty loading fee, haven't got an exact figure but I'm guessing around 4%.
This morning I bought myself and my mother coffee and later on in the day lunch.
So there you have it, cryptocurrency to physical everyday items quick and easy!
I haven't tried getting cash from an ATM yet but for each transaction it charges €2.50. A fee I'm happy to pay to cash out my cryptocurrency quick and easy.
