Monobank Takes a Stand: No BTC Payments!
posted 10 Aug 2023
"Simply put, no. Bitcoin raises concerns among both local and European regulators. Our primary business demands our focus, and it wouldn't be rational to jeopardize it by engaging with a high-risk asset like Bitcoin," says Mykhailo Rohalskyi.
He believes that cryptocurrency lacks advantages over fiat money, apart from the potential to sidestep local currency regulations.
Speaking on Ukraine's crypto landscape, the Monobank co-founder added:
"I'm skeptical about the widespread acceptance of cryptocurrencies in our country. The approach of the National Bank of Ukraine to crypto regulation remains uncertain."
