Blockchain now supports Ether

17 August 2017 21:00, UTC

The CEO of Blockchain, Peter Smith, said that this measure was taken when Ethereum became popular among the wallet users and they expressed desire to operate in different assets. He stressed that they open their doors to Ethereum with immense pleasure and will “continue to find ways to make interacting with digital assets even easier”, as cited by the ETHNews portal.

Ethereum is the second biggest cryptocurrency in terms of price and capitalization, it is one of the most popular cryptocurrencies too, so adding it was only a matter of time. The company stated that only private wallets will support ETH in this update, but later this opportunity will surely become available to corporate accounts as well.

Recently Blockchain has managed to attract $40 million of investment during its funding round. The investors were GV (formerly – Google Ventures) and Sir Richard Branson, the billionaire businessman who already invested in this company before.
