Bitcoin Service
Bitcoin services are an essential aspect to the entire crypto industry. Usually they are provided by bitcoin exchanges which offer the ability to buy and sell digital assets using fiat currencies. These services are extended to wallets which the exchange manages for its clients. As part of its bitcoin service the crypto exchange will hold the private key while the client has the public key.

Bitcoinist only deals with the most reputable bitcoin service providers so that our readers can make the best decision on which ones to use.
