A few weeks ago we teased our new ‘Viacoin accepted’ stickers on Twitter. We are thrilled to announce that Switzerland is the first country where you can now pay with Viacoin! Switzerland has proven itself to be one of the most progressive countries when it comes to regulating and accepting cryptocurrencies.

“The Swiss people seem to be willing cryptocurrency into power as the new normal. Popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether are effectively units of mathematical abstraction, and if you’d like to trade in them, Switzerland’s existing regulations are extremely favorable for businesses and people alike. At a time where global sentiment has “downright illegal” at one end of the spectrum, cryptocurrency is hip in Switzerland.” (source)

The Lionfood company is a young and ambitious company looking to compete with big names in the sports nutrition market. Lionfood focusses on quality and service, keeping the quality of their products high and the prices are very attractive. Lionfood’s customers include consumers, resellers, franchises and others interested in providing sports, nutrition and health services. Lionfood currently has 2 branches in Switzerland. 1 branch is located in Lucerne, the most populous town in Central Switzerland. The other branch is located in Brig-Glis, a historic town in the canton of Valais in Switzerland.

Lionfood is in the middle of building an entire new website and webshop, creating a global access to their products. On top of that, Lionfood is currently working together with one of the largest fitness food chains in Germany to create their own line of products called “ONE100”. “ONE100” will be sold in countries like the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Luxembourg and France. Viacoin and Lionfood are currently discussing marketing strategies on how to create brand awareness for both “ONE100” and Viacoin payments.

We asked Lionfood why they chose to accept Viacoin as a payment method in their stores:

“We are not a big fan of the fiat money system. Credit cards and fiat money are controlled by the financial elite. We try our best to support a decentralized ecosystem instead. Now why Viacoin? We are excited about the technical possibilities of Viacoin, more than Bitcoin. Another thing that attracted us was that the Viacoin blockchain exists longer than many other cryptocurrencies that have been created by the hype in late 2017. We love the fact that Viacoin has very fast confirmations and very low transaction fees. The fast confirmations take away the risks of customers using a double spend attack, making it a safe cryptocurrency for us to use. It also make the payment process very convenient and easy for the customer.”
