Sales From The Crypt

A roofing boss says soaring numbers of customers including pensioners are paying for repairs in cryptocurrency.

Kaeleb Mckay’s firm is one of a growing band of businesses that now accept digital money as an alternative to cold cash.

Most are sizeable companies with an eye on developing tech.

But a host of small businesses have turned to the cash substitute, which has sky-rocketed in value over the last decade.

And Kaeleb, 20, said he has been surprised by the people who use cryptocurrency since his firm, ASAP Roofing and Building Limited, started accepting it last year. The firm, which he has run with dad Cameron for the last three years, accepts a variety of online payments including Bitcoin, Ethereum, X RP, Dogecoin, and Litecoin.
