Virtual Panda BTM Launched for Colombian Residents: Dispenses BTC, BCH, DAI, and Dash


The CEO of Panda Group and the founder of Colombia’s Panda Exchange and physical Panda BTM terminals, Arley Lozano, recently revealed a new product called app.pandabtm.io. The new service is a virtual automated teller machine that dispenses four types of cryptocurrencies; bitcoin cash (BCH), bitcoin (BTC), DAI, and dash (DASH).


The latest effort from Panda Group is virtual Panda BTM, a “low-cost service for Colombians” looking to purchase four different cryptocurrencies. The platform accepts various Colombian payment methods like Baloto, Efecty, and PSE. Alongside this, users can pay the invoice with another cryptocurrency.


News.Bitcoin.com spoke with the CEO of Panda Group, Arley Lozano, who told our newsdesk about the new virtual Panda BTM. The company Panda Group is a well known Colombian-based crypto firm with a variety of services like Panda Exchange and the physical Panda BTM terminals.app.pandabtm.io


Lozano and his team’s Panda BTM machines are located in numerous areas throughout Colombia and Venezuela. The devices allow merchants to accept digital currencies for every point-of-sale and the machines also act as a BTM.


The latest virtual offering offers sales in bitcoin cash (BCH), dash (DASH), bitcoin (BTC), and the stablecoin DAI. Lozano explained that there’s also a Telegram and Whatsapp bot for the Panda BTM as well.The step-by-step virtual Panda BTM process.


Essentially, the service allows Colombians to purchase these crypto-assets in less than a few minutes. The application does ask for basic identification information during checkout. Prior to purchase users will need to provide a public cryptocurrency address for receiving as well.The step-by-step virtual Panda BTM process. Panda BTM also has a Whatsapp and Telegram bot.


Just like Venezuela, crypto-asset demand in Colombia has been feverish during the last three months. The economy has been dealing with the response to the Covid-19 outbreak and Colombia’s central bank recently cut rates to a historic 2.75% low. Economists believe Colombia’s central bank will cut the benchmark rate even lower going forward.


Two weeks ago the national government, Colombia’s central bank, and the finance ministry’s treasury department swapped 2 trillion pesos ($510 million). The Colombian government and central bank have been playing ping pong with trillions worth of swaps. So far the government and central bank have gathered 7 trillion pesos to-date in swap transactions.


Just like most of the citizenry from countries around the world, Colombians are looking to escape the monetary schemes created by the central bank. Cryptocurrencies are widely known in South America for helping individuals remove themselves from hyperinflation.


Statistics from Coin Dance and other trade volume data sites show that peer-to-peer bitcoin trade volumes in Colombia have been through the roof. Panda Group’s latest Panda BTM will add even more crypto-accessibility for Colombia’s residents, Lozano stressed.
