This bitcoin over-the-counter is powered by Bloom Solutions (BloomX)’s Teller and Wallet App. While brokerages, order book exchanges, and wallet apps have become popular channels to purchase cryptocurrencies, Bloom said there is still struggle for the average customer when dealing with small amounts of physical cash.

In creating the teller app, Bloom Solutions is leveraging on “the most obvious street-level manifestation of currency conversion: the neighborhood money changer”. Money changers are on the ground, in the grassroots, in areas outside the metro. They deal not just with large amounts of cash but with small amounts as well. When exchanging for bitcoins, they will not require a lot from the customer other than their IDs and bitcoin wallet address.

BloomX (Bloom Solutions) is a virtual currency exchange license holder in the Philippines.
