What assets are available to customers? Eight crypto assets can be used to pay for goods on the Konzum online store, including USDT and USDC stablecoins, as well as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stellar, Ripple, Dai, EOS, and Bitcoin Cash. The Electrocoin processing service is responsible for the technical side of all cryptocurrency transactions. If the experiment proves popular, the network's management will analyze the possibility of adding this option to the company's physical stores as well.
“We are proud to be leaders in another area that is rapidly developing and forming the future,” the Konzum representative Uroš Kalinić commented on the news.
