Also in honour of Valentine’s Day, in addition to the possibilities already described, the Bitrefill application has drawn up a list of gift ideas, listing many restaurants and retailers with whom it works.
Among the many names, we find known as Italian restaurant Buca di Beppo or the sushi restaurant Red Sushi, and retailers like Zalando, Walmart and Target.
But it seems that Tinder is not the only dating chat that relies on the crypto world.
According to a report by Forbes, Viola.Ai, an Asian online dating application currently developing its ICO phase based on the blockchain, will be soon available.
The use of blockchain will allow Viola.Ai to transparently validate the ID of the profiles, through smart contract, and use e-wallet directly for payments of any subscriptions.
Also, Viola.Ai, a project by the well known Asian online dating company Lunch, promised to offer an even more innovative service in this area: the decentralisation of the dating dedicated to automatic learning based on the love for advisory.
In essence, Viola proposes itself as an intelligent PA with the aim of supporting couples, from courtship to marriage.
Thanks to artificial intelligence, Viola will be able to control the calendar of users and offer dedicated or practical consulting services such as restaurant bookings appreciated by the partners or send reminders and give directions.
