But now, Bitcoin Group CEO Sam Lee says that his company, and the industry at large, could be worth much more than that — billions rather than millions of dollars, in fact. “Every day more stores are adopting bitcoin as a preferred payment method over systems such as Visa, Mastercard, and PayPal, as merchants don’t need to pay any transaction fees to receive bitcoin,” Bitcoin Group CEO Sam Lee told ZDnet.
Lee also notes that the company was profitable in 2015, a trend that he anticipates Bitcoin Group continuing in years to come.
“Bitcoin will revolutionize the world of finance because it has the potential to make the world of finance more accountable and cheaper to operate,” he told Yahoo Finance, and compared the cryptocurrency to “digital cash,” claiming that this newfangled money has “zero risk to merchants from fraud or charge-backs.”
Shares are currently slated to begin trading on February 2, and Lee calls it “an exciting opportunity for investors who want to be exposed to this technological paradigm shift.” So if you’re looking to diversify your portfolio in rather creative ways, you may consider turning your attention towards the Australian and Bitcoin Group.
