Not too long ago, it was reported that the US-based payment merchant processor Aliant is getting ready to pay its employees a part of the compensation packages in both BTC and Litecoin as well.
Aliant started to support the digital assets and crypto payments back in September 2017.
CEO Eric Brown says the initiative is basically highlighting the company’s commitment to the digital economy.
“The fintech industry is growing and changing rapidly, and this is a way for our employees to be a part of Aliant’s involvement in this shift to digital currency,” he said.
ATM company adds support for Litecoin
The Swiss crypto ATM company Bity added support for Litecoin.
This addition will allow people to buy LTC with cash besides BTC, Ethereum, and Monero.
It’s important to note that the ATM’s support the swiss franc and the euro.
