ziftrCOIN's new service enables consumers and merchants to accept Bitcoin, and other alternative digital monetary formats.

The Free State Project (FSP) announced recently an exclusive partnership with Milford-based cryptocurrency startup ziftrCOIN for FSP’s annual Liberty Forum event that takes place March 5-8 in Manchester.

ziftrCOIN is an innovative new altcoin designed to bring on board the next 10 million cryptocurrency users. Ziftr, the company behind ziftrCOIN, has designed a suite of tools to make cryptocurrency highly accessible and easily adoptable for both consumers and merchants. These tools include ziftrPAY, a secure API that enables merchants to accept Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, ziftrCOIN and other popular altcoins in addition to credit cards; ziftrWALLET, a multicoin digital wallet, and ziftrSHOP, an online marketplace where consumers can shop their favorite online merchants and pay using cryptocurrency or credit cards. Each ziftrCOIN will have a $1 minimum redemption value when spent within Ziftr’s retailer network.

The Free State Project is a nonprofit charity committed to educating and encouraging libertarian activists on the benefits of immigration to New Hampshire with the goal of creating a free society. Its flagship event, Liberty Forum, is New Hampshire’s premiere liberty conference and will feature over 50 notable liberty speakers from around the country.
