According to Wanchain CEO and founder Jack Lu, the integration is a big leap toward easing cryptocurrency into the mainstream. “It’s the first time in history that we’re seeing decentralized proxy-token forms of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and EOS easily tradable across different networks,” he said. “Considering also factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic and concerns over global economic inflation, we really feel that now is the time for cryptocurrency to take center stage.”
The integration of Wanchain’s cross-chain functionality is especially useful for both shoppers and merchants who would like to leverage assets and utilities from multiple blockchains while out shopping. With only their smartphone and Wanchain’s interoperable technology, shoppers will be able to easily utilize assets and applications from multiple different blockchains while out and about. Merchants, on the other hand, can accept a wide range of assets from different blockchains without needing to worry about whether they have the right software for each different blockchain.
