Crypto payment solution Ramp expands on-ramp service, adds support for 40 fiat currencies
Ramp, a financial technology company specializing in crypto infrastructure, has announced a significant expansion of its platform’s compatibility, adding 40 new fiat currencies.

They provide a convenient means for individuals to enter or exit the crypto market, enhancing accessibility, liquidity and integration between crypto and fiat currencies.
