According to PDAX, by June 2021, the volume of cryptocurrency transactions reached 20 million, while their value rose by 71% year on year to P105.93 billion.
“In June 2021, the crypto exchange raised $12.5 million or P630 million from a funding round led by a UK-based venture capital firm and joined by Hong Kong-based financial technology company BC Group,” PDAX said. “PDAX uses the fresh capital to increase support for new tokens and invest more into Bonds.PH, a blockchain-enabled platform where the Philippine government can sell retail Treasury bonds.”
