Some have dismissed the cryptocurrency craze as something created by and for the Silicon Valley set, but digital tokens are hitting the mainstream. Last Wednesday, Coinbase, the US-based platform where cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin are traded, debuted on the Nasdaq. The next day, the Miami-Dade county commissioner called for a cryptocurrency task force, which would allow residents to pay taxes, fees, and services with online currency, a potential win for the city attempting to become the country’s shiniest new tech hub. Meanwhile, crypto is gaining steam in the beauty world, particularly when it comes to paying for high ticket items, like cosmetic procedures and luxury beauty products.
