By April 1, 2016Bitcoin Business

Ethereum continues to make waves on the cryptocurrency landscape, with developers introducing new applications that take advantage of its smart contract and crowdsale capabilities. The Ether’s market cap has soared above $1 billion recently.

As Ethereum grows, it earns media coverage which in turn fuels its growth.

The new Coinimal feature is intended as an easy way to buy and sell the alt. currency using a bank account. The process of buying and selling ETH can otherwise be time-consuming since most exchanges are either U.S.-based or primarily offer ETH-to-BTC trading. Coinimal has nine funding options and withdrawals using PayPal, NETELLER, Skrill or SEPA transfer.

Christian Trummer, Coinimal chief technology officer, noted that Ralph Pichler, an Austrian smart contracts expert and an Ethereum veteran, has joined Coinimal to implement the new feature.
