Investing in Bitcoin — made effortless
By this point, you’ve heard of Bitcoin. Maybe you don’t understand what Bitcoin is all about or maybe you’re already a self-made crypto-expert. Either way, let’s all get on the same page:
Like gold, Bitcoin is a store of value — something that retains value or purchasing power into the future. Bitcoin is also the first decentralized digital currency. That means for the first time ever, you can send something of monetary value anywhere in the world without depending on a third party, like a bank or a company. This peer-to-peer network is not only faster than traditional money transfer methods, but it’s also cheaper and more secure too.
The hype around Bitcoin — and other cryptocurrency — is real, but accessibility is still low. There are over 1 million searches for “Bitcoin” alone each month (Google). In a national survey conducted by Statista it was found that 69% of US consumers were aware of cryptocurrency; yet less than one percent (in 2015) own cryptocurrency (2017 Global Cryptocurrency Benchmarking Study).
We’re looking to bridge that disconnect.
Introducing Blockbox
Though Bitcoin is not lacking in press coverage and its price has doubled in the past month, it remains right at the beginning of the adoption curve. This means there is still a lot unknown about getting started with Bitcoin. Enter Blockbox — the simplest way for anyone to begin earning cryptocurrency. Blockbox is a platform that enables you to invest the spare change from your debit or credit card transactions into cryptocurrency like Bitcoin.
On average, the American consumer has $30+ a month in spare change from their credit and debit card transactions. As the budding cryptocurrency space continues to grow, your $30 can compound into much, much more. Blockbox rounds up your card purchases and makes that money work for you.
How it works
Our platform is cost-free. All you do is sign up, connect a credit or debit card, and let Blockbox invest your spare change into the top five cryptocurrencies of your choice. You can allocate your funds across multiple currencies or into a single one. On top of spare change, you can also choose to add monthly recurring investments to your Blockbox portfolio.
As we prepare for our public launch, we hope to engage you –– the community –– to get feedback on what you would like to see for the product.
