Ukraine public transport system will accept bitcoin payment
In Kiev, the Ukrainian capital, authorities want to implement an electronic card for the payment of public transport which includes metro, buses and taxis
The authorities of the city of Kiev, Ukraine, are examining the advantages of bitcoin as a means of payment for the public transport system of the city.
The decision is part of the measures implemented by the metropolis to improve the public transport infrastructure of Kiev in order to reach the outstanding and existing standards in other major cities of the world, always thinking about offering users a quality service.
Although the idea of implementing bitcoin to cancel public transport arose in 2018, at that time it was abandoned due to the cost of the cryptocurrency.
Currently, the value of the king of digital currencies has fallen so new opportunities and possibilities open up. The city tries to implement the process for the second time.
It must be cleared that the smart cards of Kiev already went on sale, since February specifically. The prepaid card provides access to all forms of public transport in the capital.
