It should be noted that cryptocurrencies are becoming more and more popular every day, and it is noticeable in the most unexpected areas. For example, the day before, footballer Mesut Ozil asked himself the question of choosing the right digital asset. Here is his tweet.

Let me ask you a question that’s on everyone’s mind. Bitcoin or Etherium?

The majority of poll participants voted for Bitcoin. That said, Mesut has over 26 million readers, meaning a fair number of people will see the mention of cryptocurrencies.

Actress Reese Witherspoon also joined the field of digital assets the day before. On Monday, she announced the purchase of her first NFT token. What exactly she bought is not known. However, she said she wanted to learn more about the women who create NFTs.

This trend is affecting other industries as well. For example, another major airport will soon be accepting cryptocurrencies.

Where cryptocurrencies are accepted

Passengers will soon be able to pay for their services in Bitcoin, Dash and Venezuela’s national digital currency Petro, according to airport director Freddy Borges. The new strategy to support cryptocurrencies should push the airport towards technological innovation and international airline standards.

Here’s a quote from an airport spokesperson sharing his view of the situation. The quote is cited by Cointelegraph.

We have to advance in these new economic and technological systems in order to be accessible to passengers.

That is, the airport executive believes that the introduction of cryptocurrencies will be able to attract new users and guests. It makes sense: at least since Bitcoin's recognition as an official means of payment in El Salvador, many fans of digital assets have visited the country and tested the new infrastructure in person. So there's a chance that a similar thing could happen here as well.

As a reminder, many airports in other countries have long been accepting cryptocurrencies for payment from their customers. In addition, enough transportation hubs are massively installing crypto machines for easy exchange of digital assets. Venezuela itself is also working on its own central bank digital currency (CBDC), which will be linked to Petro.

Another positive news today is the opening of a billion-dollar fund for developers who create projects based on Binance Smart Chain. This was announced by representatives of the Binance exchange. The new funds will be used to develop the ecosystem, before being split into four parts.

The first part of $100 million will be used to find talent, another $100 million will be used to provide liquidity for decentralized protocols. A third of the 300 million will invest in direct creation programs, and finally the remaining 500 million will be used to “accelerate global adoption as well as change the financial system”.


We believe that what is happening in the cryptocurrency niche today hints at its further popularisation. Digital assets are now among the investments of entire nations, as well as being of active interest to ordinary people. If coins continue to show decent returns, then more and more people will use them.
