A New Payment App Taps Ripple’s XRP Ledger (XRPL) For Cheap and Fast Bitcoin (BTC) Transactions

Users can now send fast and cheap BTC payments to merchants, thanks to Ripple tech. 

Following the delay and high fee in sending Bitcoin, a new payment platform was launched to enable users to send BTC faster and cheaper to merchants, who accept digital currency as a payment method. 

SpendTheBits (STB) is a payment solution launched on Ripple’s XRP Ledger (XRPL) to allow users to send BTC faster and at a relatively low cost to merchants. 

The developer of SpendTheBits launched the solution on Ripple in order to leverage the unending payments feature of the leading blockchain, which includes faster, cheaper, and eco-friendly transactions. 

“By deploying a user’s bitcoin onto the XRPL, Users get all of the benefits as they will be able to send fast, cheap & eco-friendly payments to merchants,” SpendTheBits said in a recent tweet.

STB is currently available in Canada, with plans being made to roll out the service to Bitcoin-friendly country, El Salvador. The app is available for download on both Android and iOS devices. Aside from making payments with STB, users can also store their crypto assets on the platform.
