Operating as both, a network of ATMs and merchant point-of-sale solutions, Crytobuyer is already supporting Dash and couple of other cryptos. Per the partnership, Cryptobuyer is rolling out ‘zero-fee Dash buying’ to help quicker access of Dash altcoin as remittances to Venezuelan. To make it clear, Dash can be purchased without any fee in Panama, Country in Central America (where Cryptobuyer is located) and then send it to Venezuelans to assist them to buy anything directly at Traki.
Moreover, the offer is valid until May 1, 2019, which might have created a huge buzz around using Dash within a limited span of time.
Concerning the announcement, CEO of Dash Core Group, Ryan Taylor states that;
“Dash usage is growing at a rapid rate in Venezuela, as it provides an alternative that is a more reliable payment method and store of value. We’ve anticipated this initiative from Cryptobuyer, as it provides the everyday person a seamless and efficient way to access Dash and lowers barriers to entry.”
