Bitfinex supports payments with credit and debit cards

A research on the most preferred online payment methods revealed credit cards as the number one option, followed by electronic payment and debit cards.

Cryptocurrencies, on the other hand, are still growing both as means of payment and assets. Considering the industry is still in the early stages, the growth is astonishing. With around $6 billion of daily transactions for Bitcoin alone, the global blockchain market size is expected to reach $57 million by 2025.

That said, the crypto ecosystem needs to grow exponentially to achieve the awaited mass adoption.

As a crypto exchange, one of our efforts to grow the ecosystem is by building gateways between fiat and crypto. We do this by adding more payment options to encourage more people to buy cryptocurrencies on our platform.
