Wed, Jan 1 – Bitcoin Changes Everything
Summary: It’s been a while since we last made significant announcements and changes for VirtaPay. In this blog post we share some new changes and tell you what’s been happening. But, most importantly, we want to share this news — VirtaPay is back on track with exciting plans for the future!Recent Changes
Here are a few recent changes to the VirtaPay website…- Debit card plans cancelled. We have dropped our plans to introduce a VirtaPay debit card. Instead of a debit card, we are embracing the future and plan to convert VirtaPay into a crypto-currency like Bitcoin. This way, you can spend with merchants that accept Bitcoin or easily convert your VirtaPay balance into the national currency of your choice. Read this full blog post to learn more about Bitcoin, crypto-currencies and why our new course is good for you and for the VirtaPay project.
- Ad Sharing fixed. If you activated AdSharing before June 2013, and if it got deactivated, we have good news for you. Just sign in to your VirtaPay account, then, look for a box (on the right) with a red bar at the top. It will say “Error: Ad Sharing set-up is not complete.” Just click the link found inside that box and re-set up your Ad Sharing.
- Ad Sharing restitution. Because of the way the Ad Sharing deactivation happened, we couldn’t determine who was affected and who wasn’t. If it was possible that you may have been affected, you will receive a VP$24,000 restitution payment for the lost potential earnings that you could have earned at VP$100/day, instead of VP$20/day. If the above fix applies to you, you should see this restitution payment when you click “History” in the top links.
- Sending limit raised. The sending limit has been raised to $VP10,000,000.
- Global Financial Crisis blog post series cancelled. We will not finish our blog post series on the global financial crisis. We have found a resolution and a clear path forward. We are moving onward. Read on to find out what changed…
