Newnote Financial Announces Launch of Puretradeâ„¢ Crypto-Currency Exchange

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:07 AM on Tuesday, December 2nd, 2014

Vancouver, British Columbia – Newnote Financial Corp. (the “Company”), (CSE: NEU; OTCQB: NWWTF; FSE: 1W4) is pleased to announce the live public beta launch of our proprietary crypto-currency exchange, Puretrade. Puretrade enables users to trade Bitcoin, as well as other crypto-currency coin-pairings such as Bitcoin for Litecoin and vice-versa.

During the course of 2014, Newnote has been developing and testing its flagship web-based and mobile service Puretrade Exchange. Utilizing the services of our alliance partners Coinpayments.net, Net-Cents and Primebit Japan, Puretrade enables users to deposit and withdraw funds via Net-Cents, list new coin-pairings and provide liquidity for Coinpayments.net’s 8,000 strong merchant client base in addition to offering the Japanese market digital currency trading and arbitrage opportunities through our partner Primebit.

Newnote intends to continue attracting new alliance partners in various countries where there is clearly a need for an exchange. Alliance partners utilize the Puretrade platform for the backend while using their existing financial institutions within their region for electronic fund transfers to and from client accounts. Each new partner will contribute to the liquidity of Bitcoin and other digital currencies traded on Puretrade.

In addition, Newnote’s development team has built out the Puretrade API to enable outside developers to seamlessly integrate third-party applications into the Puretrade platform. Typical applications may include Automated Banking Machines (ABM), high-frequency trading bots, mobile payment processing devices and iPhone/Android apps. API specification documentation is available on the Puretrade.ca website.

CEO and President Paul Dickson states: “This is a very significant milestone for Newnote, as Puretrade enables our organization to execute our previously announced plans with our partners. Just as significantly this will allow Newnote to develop new business relationships with other crypto-companies requiring a platform to buy and sell crypto-currencies. I’m personally thrilled with the possibilities the Puretrade API will offer developers and the creative applications they will come up with.“

The Puretrade Crypto-Currency Exchange can be accessed at www.puretrade.ca

Newnote Financial Corp. Acquires Equity in Major Crypto-Currency Payment Processor Coinpayments Inc.

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:00 AM on Monday, October 27th, 2014

Newnote Financial Corp. Acquires Equity in Major Crypto-Currency Payment Processor Coinpayments Inc.

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) – Newnote Financial Corp. (the “Company”), (CSE: NEU; OTCQB: NWWTF; FSE: 1W4) is pleased to announce it has purchased an equity position in the crypto-currency payment processor Coinpayments Inc. (“Coinpayments”)

Coinpayments Inc. is a privately held payment processor operating the Coinpayments website, a service similar to Coinbase and Bitpay. Coinbase has raised $25 million in a Series B round led by Andreessen Horowitz in December 2013 while in May 2014 BitPay officially raised $30 million in Series A funding in the largest-ever financing round for a bitcoin company. The round was led by Index Ventures, and included Yahoo founder Jerry Yang’s AME Cloud Ventures, Felicis Ventures, PayPal founder Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, Horizons Ventures, RRE Ventures, Virgin Galactic’s Sir Richard Branson and TTV Capital.

Coinpayments differs from its competitors in that it accepts over 50 different types of crypto-currency and has grown to become the third largest crypto-currency payment processor and the largest multi-currency payment processor, with over 7500 merchants in 120 different countries,  processing nearly $1,000,000 per month worth of Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Peercoin, Omnicoin, Darkcoin, Maxcoin and dozens of others. In addition to payment processing, the company offers its merchants a listing in the largest Crypto store directory on the web where visitors can purchase thousands of products and services using any supported crypto-currencies.

Coinpayments offers its merchants Point-of-Sale checkout in 24 languages with support for 21 shopping cart plugins enabling merchants to easily integrate crypto payments within minutes.  Popular supported shopping carts include OpenCart, osCommerce, Magneto, Zen Cart, WordPress and WooCommerce among others. Coinpayments generates revenue from transaction fees, advertising, and other merchant services. Additionally, Coinpayments provides an innovative currency launch platform that gives new currency developers support in the form of merchant acceptance, blockchain explorer, free coin faucets, and listing in its store directory.

A competitive advantage of Coinpayments is that it offers the largest multi-crypto-currency wallet on the web supporting over 50 different crypto-currencies at no additional cost. Web wallets are convenient and can be accessed from any mobile device or desktop computer. Balances can be applied directly during checkout with any of their merchants.

Revenue, transaction volume and number of registered clients are all expected to more than triple by June of 2015 at the current rate of growth.  Newnote Financial Corp. has paid to Coinpayments Inc., CAD $100,000.00 plus 1.5 million shares priced at $0.15 cents and 600,000 warrants priced up to $1.00. Newnote received 20% equity in Coinpayments.

Paul Dickson, Newnote President and CEO states: “This is a strategic investment for us for a multitude of reasons. Payment processing is clearly the most lucrative area of crypto-currencies and our primary focus.  Our proprietary crypto-currency exchange platform will enable merchants to liquidate crypto-currencies for cash and then transfer funds to their accounts through our previously announced partner Net-Cents.”

Coinpayments Inc. Chairman and CEO Alex Alexandrov says: “We are constantly looking for innovative ways to improve the services we offer our merchant customers. This deal with Newnote is in the best interests of our customers and the emerging peer-to-peer payment marketplace as a whole. Credit for this deal and our many advancements to date goes to a great Coinpayments team, which I am delighted to say, includes the original Coinpayments.net founders.”

Mr. Alexandrov will be joining Newnote as a technical advisor.

Is it loonie to collect your salary in Bitcoin?

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 11:58 AM on Tuesday, September 2nd, 2014

A small but growing – and surprising – number of workers are rejecting Canadian dollar salaries for Bitcoin, according to a Waterloo, Ont., payroll firm.

Wagepoint CEO Shrad Rao said his firm came up with the cryptocurrency payment option in November last year as a side project and did not expect any take-up.

Video: Wrapping your head around bitcoin

But as the online currency gained popularity this year, he said, employees from 10 firms have signed up for the Bitcoin option, and many more are asking about it.

“When we started off, we didn’t even think we’ll get one,” he said over the phone from New York, where Wagepoint has another office.

“What’s interesting is that we’ve actually had customers come to us because of the (Bitcoin) integration, which we were not expecting at all.”

Rao said the firms are overwhelmingly technology companies, whose workers have higher interest in new innovations and tend to dabble more.

In addition to Canadian interest, he said gets about five inquiries for Bitcoin payment per month from the United States, where Wagepoint also operates, although it has not yet launched such an option in that country.

Bitcoin, a decentralized currency, was launched in 2009 by an as-yet unknown person or group. It gained mainstream attention in 2013, and subsequent adoption caused one bitcoin to rise to a high of $1,000.

But most brick-and-mortar shops still do not recognize Bitcoin as currency, and neither does the Canadian government, which in June ruled Bitcoin is property.

Canada Revenue Agency spokesman Noel Carisse said paying employees in Bitcoin means paying them in goods – “a barter transaction.”

“The goods – the Bitcoin, in the case of digital currency – must be valued and reported in Canadian dollars,” he said in an e-mail.

“The employee would then include the appropriate amount on their tax return for the year as employment income. Any tax payable would have to be paid in Canadian dollars.”

For Wagepoint, however, it works differently. Rao said for tax purposes, employees are still being paid with Canadian dollars on paper.

He said workers can have all or part of their wages in bitcoins, and taxes are taken from the Canadian dollar salary before the remainder is converted.

“Really, it’s (about) what you do with your personal income at that point,” he said. “If you bought a boat with it or invest in Bitcoin – I’m not sure that’s very different from each other.”

But the payment system will not likely have mass adoption until there is regulation and widespread acceptance for Bitcoin, according to an expert.

Cissy Pau of the Vancouver-based Clear HR Consulting, which deals with small businesses, predicts being paid in virtual currency will not expand beyond the tech world because there are currently too few places to spend it.

“Tech companies, I can see that,” she said. “But I just can’t see that in, say, Canada Post, a more traditional-type company with more traditional-type workers. I would suspect that people will be highly skeptical.”

Currently, even those who earn exclusively in bitcoins cannot escape traditional currency.

Michael Perklin of Bitcoinsultants does business in the virtual currency and has not earned Canadian dollars since February, but does not use Bitcoin directly in most day-to-day transactions.

Perklin said he uses third-party services that allow him to make regular purchases and bill payments in Bitcoin, and also sells bitcoins for cash.

For instance, Perklin’s mortgage is paid for through a Canadian dollar chequing account where he deposits funds after selling bitcoins on online exchanges.

Perklin said living completely without traditional currency may be possible in the future, but it is difficult to do right now.

“I have to interact with Canadian currency,” he said. “That’s a fact of live in the country I live in.”
