Could This Be the Cause of Shiba Inu Prices Rising 10% Daily?

OPNX Exchange Bids for Crypto Lender in Singapore: Report

Shiba Inu has increased by 10% during the past day, following the general market uptick. Could there be another reason for the rise, though?

Bill Pay, a new service from cryptocurrency payment gateway BitPay, enables users to pay regular bills using their digital currency wallets.

Bill Pay will allow customers access to more than 5,000 service providers, including vehicle payments, mortgages, personal loans, and credit cards, according to a news release from BitPay dated August 8.

The new functionality, which is integrated into BitPay’s self-custody wallet, makes it simple for BitPay users to send money without the assistance of banks or other financial institutions.

Only 19 states will initially have access to the payment option, according to BitPay, including Florida, New Jersey, and Washington.

The new service, according to company CEO Stephen Pair, is a “monumental” move for underbanked communities. Additionally, he claimed that Bill Pay may revolutionise the sector and that BitPay users were among the biggest cryptocurrency users.
