“Earth’s 7.1 billion people have 6.8 billion active cell phones. Almost everyone in the world has SMS text-messaging technology, making mobile phones the most popular device ever in history. South American startup Moneero plans to transform the SMS network into the first truly global payment system by using Bitcoin, a payment technology created in 2009 with virtually no transfer fees. Moneero’s inclusive ecosystem, available in the coming months, also works with the world’s 1.5 billion social media accounts and Moneero’s Bitcoin-specific ATMs.”
