Galaxia Communications is going to accept BTC for some of their services. That way, the company can build in some extra buffers and reach out to new potential customers at the same time. This company offers transaction, information, and entertainment solutions on wired & wireless networks. Their services range from e-payments to marketing solutions and strategies.
At first glance it isn’t all that remarkable. Other companies have taken the same actions as Galaxia communications like Mobile Vikings in Europe or Newegg. However what does make it more special is that this South Korean company, based in Seoul, is trying to break the prejudice that the general public has toward digital currencies.
The fact that Galaxia is considering accepting Bitcoin can be an incentive for other companies to follow in Galaxia’s footsteps. Galaxia is also on the KOSDAQ, one of the official exchanges in South Korea. It is the equivalent of the NYSE but than in an Asiatic setting.
This is great news for the Asiatic Bitcoin enthusiasts because Asia is a notorious hard place where accepting Bitcoin by the general public an officials a like is not so easy. If this all goes according to plan Galaxia’s acceptance of BTC can open to doors for other Crypto and can be an stimulus for companies in Asia.
