Venezuela-based blockchain startup Dash Text rolls out in Venezuela to permit users to send and receive Dash (DASH) through SMS. All the Dash Text customers have to possess is a smartphone with an Internet connection to conduct SMS-based transactions with DASH.
On the other hand, Venezuela is experiencing a significant financial drawback as this South American country is affected by hyperinflation. The country’s government tries to tackle this issue with the launch of the Petro (PTR) national cryptocurrency which would is an oil-backed crypto token Venezuelan officials hope to reduce the inflation.
As many Venezuelans can’t afford to buy clothes, food, and other day-by-day products, cryptocurrencies seemed an excellent solution to tackle the hyperinflation that affects the country for more than two years. On the other hand, many have left the country to seek better jobs in neighboring countries.
Now, Dash Text rolled out across Venezuela to allow customers to send and receive Dash (DASH) via SMS, as DASH is one of the most popular crypto tokens in this country.
