BitAccess Wants to get Canadian Government Officials Excited About Cryptocurrency

It is always quite interesting to keep an eye on Bitcoin promotional events. Getting cryptocurrency into the hands of as many people as possible is not easy by any means. BitAccess is taking a different approach with their latest “airdrop”. Canadian government employees can receive CA$5 worth of Bitcoin or Ether free of charge. All they need to do is sign up for the service to get the money. An interesting tactic, but can it ever work?

BitAccess is doing an excellent job to promote cryptocurrency in Canada. It has become a lot harder to buy Bitcoin and other currencies in the country as of late. This has mainly to do with strict regulations. Additionally, several Canadian exchanges have halted operations or were acquired by competitors. It is evident there isn’t nearly enough competition in the country right now. As a result, it appears cryptocurrency interest in Canada is slowly waning.

An Interesting Decision by BitAccess

To counter this situation, BitAccess is hosting a promotional event. More specifically, they will give CA$5 worth of Bitcoin or Ether to all government of Canada employees. This is quite an interesting take on things, although it remains to be seen if it can be successful. Government employees will need to create an account with the Canada.ca email address. It is possible most organizations will prohibit employees from doing so, though.
