The company is also starting to work on the registration for its innovative Bitcoin Wallet application on the wallace.cash website. The wallet is expected to be released in November this year and it will include a proprietary application that is fully developed by Northern bitcoin.

Moritz Jäger, Technical Director (CTO) of Northern Bitcoin, commented about it:

“With our innovative e-wallet app Wallace and the slogan ‘Your First Bitcoin Wallet’, we want to make the Bitcoin accessible to a broad public. Our objective has always been to provide a simple tool for the secure and easy receiving, storing and sending of Bitcoins.”

The wallet is expected to be easy to use for users without any previous knowledge about it. The new application will include a menu with short explanations to make it as easy as possible to use for users.

With this Wallace application developed by Northern Bitcoin, it will be possible to replace the intermediary that was usually required between customers and assets. In the future, the services provided by the wallet are expected to expand according to users’ needs and demands.
