Cryptocurrencies are a type of traditional debit and credit card that, in addition to handling fiat currencies, allow users to store and use cryptocurrency for purchases and other financial transactions. They essentially connect your cryptocurrency wallet to your bank account, giving you the ability to settle payments in digital currencies at both online merchants and physical shops.
Here’s an example of how it works:
- You make a transaction in rubles to buy goods in US dollars.
- The bank receives the request and automatically converts the RUB currency to USD at the current exchange rate.
- The bank then transfers the USD currency to the seller’s account.
В случае использования криптовалют принцип остается тем же, только национальной валютой являются криптовалюты: BTC, ETH, USDT и другие криптоактивы.
