“At the end of the day, what we’re trying to do is make bitcoin easy to use,”
says Coinbase vice president of business development and strategy Adam White.
“We want to make it easy to buy and sell bitcoin, and we want to make it easy
to spend. A mainstream debit card based on bitcoin is a key element.”
According to Coinbase, the card has been approved for use by anyone living in
one of 25 US states, including Texas, Washington, and New Jersey. It’s available
in California, but only as part of a “beta” launch that will top out at 1,000 users.
