KinerjaPay Corp. Enters Partnership With Bitcoin Indonesia
KinnerjaPay Corp., (KPAY), a digital payment and ecommerce platform, today announced that it has partnered with Bitcoin Indonesia to accept the bitcoin currency for transactions conducted on its platform.

About Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a consensus network that provides a new payment system and a completely digital money. It is the first decentralized peer-to-peer payment network that is powered by its users with no central authority or middlemen. Bitcoin can also be seen as the most prominent triple entry bookkeeping system in existence. Bitcoin is the first implementation of a concept called "cryptocurrency", which was first described in 1998 by Wei Dai who suggested the idea of a new form of money that uses cryptography to control its creation and transactions, rather than a central authority.
