In brief:
- The Crypto communities on WhatsApp can now tip each other using the NANO Tipbot.
- The tip bot provides an avenue for members of WhatsApp groups to reward each other on the messaging App.
- The tip bot has the potential of introducing the feeless digital asset to WhatsApp’s 1.6 Billion global users.
Crypto adoption is often seen as the last hurdle necessary in bringing digital assets to the mainstream. With a total market capitalization of approximately $262 Billion, cryptocurrencies are still in their infancy and daily usage through tipping is one way of making digital assets as commonplace as regular banknotes. There is no better way of bringing digital assets to the masses than through tipping in popular messaging apps such as Telegram and WhatsApp. In the case of the latter application, users can now tip each other in Nano (NANO) thanks to a new bot dubbed TheNanoBot.
TheNanoBot Brings Nano (NANO) to Over 1.6B WhatsApp Users
TheNanoBot is an easy to use tipping bot that can be added to any group chat on WhatsApp. This, in turn, means that WhatsApp’s over 1.6 Billion active global users, can now send each other NANO through TheNanoBot. (Twitter users can also find the bot via its username: @The_Nano_Bot.)
