A non-custodial Bitcoin-only exchange with a head office in Canada, Bull Bitcoin, has formed a partnership with SINPE Movil, Costa Rica\u2019s principal fiat payments system, and Bitcoin Jungle, a local crypto wallet solution.<\/p>\n

According to Bull Bitcoin\u2019s press release<\/a> from Sept 14, both the citizens of Costa Rica and \u201cforeigners\u201d will be able to convert the local currency, Colones, to Bitcoin, and vice versa. Bull Bitcoin will also allow conversion to and from bank accounts (IBAN) both in Colones and USD via regular bank transfers.<\/p>\n

The exchange will operate through the Bitcoin Jungle wallet with users purchasing Bitcoin by sending their fiat money to Bull Bitcoin via SINPE Movil and getting BTC on their Bitcoin Jungle accounts. As Bull Bitcoin emphasizes, this will make it \u201cpossible for merchants to quickly and effectively “cash out” their Bitcoin for fiat currency and increases their confidence in accepting Bitcoin payments.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the company\u2019s terms, an entry into the Costa Rican market \u201cofficially kicks off\u201d its international expansion. Over the next 12 months, Bull Bitcoin plans to become available to \u201cover a billion people worldwide\u201d after \u201calmost 10 years of being available only in Canada and serving a market of 35 million individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n

Costa Rica is among the list of Latin America\u2019s countries covered by recently launched Binance\u2019s \u201cSend Cash\u201d product<\/a>.
