Thirty percent of the proceeds generated from the new digital currency MiamiCoin can be used to fund city initiatives, according to the Miami Herald.

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez told Fox Business:

“The city of Miami could end up making millions of dollars as a result of the popularity of MiamiCoin, because obviously Miami has now become, the bitcoin capital of the world.

And we are focusing on differentiating our economy by creating a new wave of technology products that will encourage people to move to Miami and be part of our technology ecosystem.”

Miami Worked with Citycoin, a company that develops a cryptocurrency for municipalities, to launch their new digital token. The Miami-specific currency is available for digital mining and is the first of its kind to hit the market.

 

The idea is that people will support Miami by buying or mining MiamiCoin, and funds will be funneled into the city’s treasury.

CityCoins said:

“The city of Miami can elect to use its growing crypto treasury to benefit the city and its constituents — think new public spaces, improvements to infrastructure, hosting city events, recruiting startups, and more.” 




Bitcoin Rewards

MiamiCoin can be mined or bought by individuals who want to support Miami city and receive crypto income from the stack protocol. MiamiCoin additionally benefits its holders by allowing them to accumulate and generate income using the stack protocol.

Anyone can mine MiamiCoin. If the project takes off and becomes popular with more people who own it, investors will be able to passively earn bitcoins simply by owning MiamiCoin. This is because MiamiCoin is built on stacks, a crypto project that allows users to stake their tokens and receive rewards for keeping the system running.

 

CityCoin Writes:

“MiamiCoin miners have plenty of opportunities to earn rewards, but the ultimate purpose is to create new applications and use cases built on top of MiamiCoin’s core infrastructure.”
