Cryptocurrencies continue to roll into the retail and services market abetted by new blockchain-based POS devices.

In a most recent development, California-based Dr. Peter H. Grimes, Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.), a member of Avanti Sports Medicine and Fitness, announced that it will begin to accept cryptocurrency payments through Pundi X’s more and more ubiquitous XPOS device supplied by BTCKing, a Pundi XPOS reseller in USA.

Dr. Grimes has worked with the USA Olympic team as well as athletes from the NFL, NBA, WNBA, PGA, and NCAA.

“I am excited to be on the cutting edge of innovation to use XPOS in my Sports Performance and Wellness Chiropractic Practice,” said Dr. Grimes, one of Americas’ top chiropractors and a sports medicine doctor in Avanti.

A former Team USA Track and Field Gold Medalist and a former world record holder, Dr. Grimes, helped produced 13 NCAA track and field national titles and 37 conference championship titles; has partnered with USA-based techpreneur Dee Duncan, who runs BTCKing distribution network.
