The service was launched in the fall of 2021. It allowed to attract investments in national currencies without selling bitcoin. It also made it possible to avoid the consequences of taxation.


They did not explain why the service would be discontinued. However, representatives of the platform reported that they constantly analyze the products they provide. In this case, the priority will be those in which users are interested.
