Also this week, Bitcoin.com revealed on Monday a newly rebranded look which can be seen throughout our website and product line. Users can now explore our newly revamped website, commencing with the Get Started section that aims to communicate our products in a more relatable way.

“Reimagining our brand, we took a step back and identified our values,” explained Bitcoin.com Head Designer Andrew Todd. “With universal accessibility being our most important value, we set out to create a color palette that would not only resonate with people and help create a lasting identity, but would work seamlessly across devices and in different environments.”

Other positive news covered in the video include a partnership with Cred that will allow Bitcoin.com customers to earn up to 10% interest on their cryptocurrency holdings in both BCH and BTC. Also, bitcoin cash adoption is growing in Tokyo and Australia. Luxury watch and jewelry shop Gem Castle Yukizaki is now accepting BCH payments at all of their 13 locations across Japan.

Meanwhile, the number of locations in Australia where you can pay with bitcoin cash has reached 145, according to the Marco Coino app. And since its launch, Local.Bitcoin.com has grown to almost 20,000 users. The peer-to-peer marketplace allows you to trade bitcoin cash. If you haven’t claimed your referral link, set up an account with your email to start earning BCH – you’ll receive 20% of all fees from users signing up with your link.
