After a couple of months, the administration in Miami city has confirmed that they are all set to launch cryptocurrencies in the city. It has been confirmed that the commissioners in the city have all voted in favor of the mayor to adopt Bitcoin (BTC) on a larger scale.
The Miami mayor had reportedly proposed the idea of paying out salaries, fees, and taxes through Bitcoin (BTC). Now that the proposal has received approval from all the commissioners, it will soon be implemented in the city.
Furthermore, the city is also looking into the potential of adopting bitcoin as a mode of investment. If this happens, then Bitcoin (BTC) will become one of the currencies used for state treasury investments.

All the commissioners from the Miami city unanimously agreed to the aim and goal that has been proposed by Mayor Francis Suarez. With the recent outcome, the administration of the Miami city has made it obvious that they are aiming to make Miami a bitcoin-forwarded city in the country.
The mayor of Miami city, Francis Suarez thanked all of the commissioners for their support and being thoughtful about the city’s ventures. The mayor also stated that with this approval, he will be getting in touch with one of the vendors that will help them set up bitcoin infrastructure.
Once set up, the administration will then aim to offer the government employees a small portion of their salaries in Bitcoin (BTC). On top of that, the administration will work alongside the vendor to launch more services for the citizens in Miami city.
With time, the Miami citizens will be facilitated in processing transactions, paying fees, as well as pay their taxes through Bitcoin (BTC).
By executing the above, the Miami city mayor has brought the city one step closer to being the cryptocurrency hub in the United States.
