Due to the tough US policy towards crypto business, Strike moved its headquarters to El Salvador.
The CEO of the payment platform, Jack Mullers, told Fortune last week that the Latin American state is creating more favorable conditions for work.
Strike plans to significantly expand the list of digital currencies available to users.
US regulators are stepping up pressure on crypto platforms. In the US, there is still no licensing system for exchanges and services related to the blockchain industry.
Mullers welcomed El Salvador’s decision to legalize bitcoin. According to him, the country has become attractive both for crypto companies and for tourists who pay for goods and services with digital currency.
Strike and Bitcoin exchange Bitfinex were among the first companies to receive licenses from the El Salvadoran authorities.
In March, Jack Mullers said that in the face of the banking crisis in the United States, capital will more actively enter the digital currency market. The dollar will gradually depreciate, and bitcoin, on the contrary, will receive the status of the most reliable and profitable instrument.
