“Founders of Babberly, which is an emerging local search application, recently bought into the bitcoin. Babberly partners with merchants, allowing businesses to offer real-time deals to local users. Babberly Co-Founder Bobby Marhamat believes bitcoin’s positives significantly outweigh the negatives. Marhamat said consumer-spending habits have changed, which is why his local search app is developing a bitcoin payment option and encouraging merchants to participate. Regarding negative PR surrounding the bitcoin, Marhamat added, ‘No currency is perfect. The U.S. Dollar, Euro and every other currency have downsides, too.'”
