Watermark Exchange will be the first trading company in United States to accept bitcoin for note sales.

“We understand bitcoin is becoming a very important way of paying for transactions, so we’ve been working hard to integrate bitcoin capabilities into our platform,” Founder & CEO of Watermark Trading Exchange Val Sotir said. “Our team is constantly looking for ways to improve the trading experience of our clients. We really believe that adding bitcoin as a form of payment on our exchange will offer even more flexibility to our international real estate investors looking to add defaulted notes to their own portfolio.”

Sotir, a 23-year Wall Street veteran in the trading and mortgage industry, said his firm has gotten numerous inquiries from international investors – particularly from Europe, South America and Asia – about being able to accept bitcoin. Watermark’s entry into the digital currency space gives buyers more flexibility to pay.

Watermark has a designated trading desk to convert bitcoin payments directly into U.S. dollars, and it has retained BitPay as its payment processor. This move was meant to ensure Watermark could serve a larger section of the US investor market.

Bitcoin and digital currencies burst into the mainstream in 2013, and they have become a topic of great debate by politicians, regulators, retail owners, and financial professionals.
