Get Paid in Crypto With Coinbase
According to an official blog post, Coinbase seeks to reduce friction when acquiring or using cryptocurrencies, allowing people to start using or exchanging tokens more easily and instantaneously. Coinbase believes this will represent the future of payroll.
Basically, Coinbase would take care of the entire process, which starts when the client receives the money and extends until the deposit in the exchange and the purchase of tokens. By automating everything and because of the process’s speed, customers get the impression of being paid directly in cryptocurrencies.
Everything is done on a zero-fee basis, although Coinbase will benefit from the spread on transactions.
The registration process is easy and intuitive and is done only once. In general terms, the client must provide information about their current payroll company or employer. Coinbase will take care of the necessary paperwork to receive his money directly in Coinbase.
Coinbase Expands Its Services
Despite the setbacks, Coinbase has positioned itself as a major player in the North American market. Its direct listing marked a key moment in the history of the crypto industry.
Nowadays, Coinbase stocks are popular among investors willing to gain indirect exposure to Bitcoin.
Coinbase’s recent developments have had mixed results. For example, the company recently had to abandon plans to develop a high-yield crypto lending service after the SEC gave indications that such activity could be categorized as issuing and trading unregistered securities.
However, Coinbase seems to be hitting the nail on the head with its customers from law enforcement agencies. A few days ago, it revealed that it had managed to secure its largest-ever public contract with the U.S. government, providing the U.S. Homeland Security with a blockchain analytics software for undisclosed motives.
