Your crypto address just got easy to remember and share thanks to jfGi

When you ask users of cryptocurrency about transferring bitcoin to each other, the general consensus is that it could be easier. It’s a definite stumbling block for many users and for those who are very new to cryptocurrency, enough to make them rethink their decision to purchase cryptocurrency from the start.

It doesn’t come down to confidence, it comes down to making the experience hassle-free and easy.

Introducing jfGi ‘just for Getting it [dot] CryptoCurrency – www.jfGi.cc – an African Blockchain startup making bitcoin easy to use, and easy to transfer the cryptocurrency between users.

Rafiq Phillips, the founder of jfGi, says, “jfGi simplifies and demystifies receiving bitcoin payments for anyone, anywhere on any mobile device in the world with just 1 click. It really is a case of clicking on an easy to remember jfGi.cc link and you’ll be transacting on the blockchain.”

Here’s how it works with Bitcoin:

  • Follow @jfGi on Twitter & wait for it to follow you back.
  • Send a Direct Message (DM) with any of the public BTC addresses that you can receive bitcoin at.
  • Send 0.001111 (about USD 8 at time of publication) by clicking jfGi.cc/jfgi on mobile or 3H8iYZfFEPyrC7AtUz2Dg1UHvkg47TR2HA
  • Wait for @jfgi to DM your jfgi.cc/twitter-handle link

In layperson’s terms:

The app links your twitter username to your public bitcoin address. You no longer need to remember a long string of up to 35 alphanumeric characters that resemble intricate code, trying to copy and paste on the run –  Just ask for the recipients jfGi link, click on it on your mobile when they share it with you and you’re good to go.

Phillips continues, “Since starting to accept payments for my consulting services in Bitcoin it became time consuming and cumbersome to copy/paste my wallet address and create a QR code for every invoice. At the end of April 2018, I used my personal site to develop what has become the Alpha version of jfGi today. Working with my development partner, Tim Akinbo, who is also the co-founder of Nigerian Bitcoin marketplace, Tanjalo.com, the Twitter chatbot twitter.com/jfGi is being fine-tuned.”

Using only Twitter, crowdsourcing and open source business design principles, the first users – ‘The jfGi 100’ – helped in sharing requests for new features, and sharing the idea of jfGi. With just over 100 users, their jfGi’s have already been clicked over 16000 times.

“I’m blown away by the various use-cases from schools using jfGi for Bitcoin fundraising to twitter users collecting Bitcoin tips from their followers. The feedback we’ve received and numbers are a testament that consumers were ready for this,” said Phillips.

In a Q&A earlier this year, Mastering Bitcoin author, Andreas M. Antonopoulos stressed the importance of why bitcoin wallets user interfaces need to be easy to use as this is the first experience new users have with Bitcoin. Phillips agrees adding, “jfGi is the glue between the foundation of internet communication (the URL) and a user’s bitcoin wallet.”
