BLANTYRE-(MaraviPost)-National Bank of Malawi (NBM) plc says it is excited to retain the Best Digital Bank award for the third consecutive year in its quest to offer meaningful, accessible, and inclusive financial solutions to Malawians.

The Bank’s mobile banking platform, Mo626 Digital+ was named Best Digital Banking Solution at this year’s ICT Association of Malawi (ICTAM) Corporate Awards at the Bingu International Convention Centre (BICC) in Lilongwe.

NBM plc Head of Digital Financial Services, William Kaunda, said the Bank is both honoured and challenged by the recognition.

“To be recognised at national level for the third time in a row has really excited us. It affirms that the Bank is effectively leveraging the digital environment to deliver value to customers and communities,” explained Kaunda.

Bitcoin is not a gambling – it is easier than you think

Maravi Post Reporter

BitcoinRegardless of your experience in the trading world, we are sure that you have met the “volatility” term at least once. Immediately after the advent of Bitcoin, digital currency was surrounded by arguments and various guesses. Probably even its creator did not believe that Bitcoin popularity would reach such limits.

Today, we have one interesting trend – most Internet users associate virtual currency with instant wealth. So, teenagers bought bitcoin when it cost a few dollars and became rich overnight when the cost of cryptocurrency increased several times. Of course, each of us would like to have a couple of bitcoins, so some users are looking for a place where they could buy these coins at a discount. But at the same time, we are not sure that everyone knows how cryptocurrency works and what it offers.

The goal of Bitcoin – it should be a simple and at the same time cheap way to store money. In addition, it must be unregulated and this is in fact the main condition.

So, we got the main question: “How can you feel the possibilities of Bitcoin?”

1) Gambling

The popularity of this entertainment is growing every day. For many players, this is not only a hobby but also extra income as modern online slots provide excellent payouts. Unfortunately, in some countries, gambling is prohibited or strictly regulated, so gamers are looking for new solutions that would preserve their anonymous status. Using Bitcoin, no one can calculate your status and all traces will disappear as soon as you close the site with slot machines. Actually, you even online casino with real money and no deposit!

2) What to do after ? This is a hard question with a simple answer: why don’t you buy a property?

According to the latest data, bitcoin owners buy houses and villas in Canada. It is obvious that the locals are not satisfied with this position of cryptocurrency since property prices have increased dramatically. Canada is not the only country where you can buy a small house or a huge villa if you have enough digital coins on your balance sheet.

3) Imagine that you bought a luxury house with mahogany and ivory furniture. You can swim in your huge pool and have a glass of exclusive champagne. All you need now is a supercar. Take out your cryptocurrency wallet and give away a few coins for the new Porsche/Rolls-Royce.

4) With the help of Bitcoin, you can even buy a family, but we recommend doing it naturally. In today’s world, all parents want to give their children a good education/travels/cloth and so on. For all this, Bitcoin will pay again. Of course, education has become the most expensive aspect after Nicosia University (Cyprus) accepted Bitcoin to pay for their degree…in which subject? Right, Digital Currency. This event has become a popular trend, so large universities from different countries began to use virtual money too.

5) Sooner or later, everyday life will become boring and you will need a vacation. Fortunately, there are many travel agencies built around digital currency. They offer endless options for a casual and luxurious holiday.

This list can go on as there are 100+ thousand outlets that will help you buy or spend your bitcoins. We know that it looks like a fantastic movie, but it all happens in right now. The future has come and no one will deny it.

With Google you will find dozens or even hundreds of stores that offer users to spend their casino winnings. All you need is to buy/win some digital coins and relax. Imagine your ideal world where Bitcoin is the only currency. Do not pay attention to its fluctuations as they are important only for traders. This will not prevent you from enjoying the value of cryptocurrency…
