By March next year, Bitcoin Cash could have been adopted as a legal tender in Saint Kitts and Nevis, the Caribbean nation’s prime minister, Terrance Drew, said at a conference on Saturday.
Bitcoin Cash is a fork of Bitcoin. It was split in 2017 with the aim of making transactions faster and easier.
Drew said the decision would follow a process of due diligence and consultation with experts and the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank.
The island chain would join countries such as El Salvador and the Central African Republic that have adopted crypto as a means of payment.
