SERI KEMBANGAN: Property tycoon Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew has partnered with a technology firm to develop a cryptocurrency wallet mobile application.

Lee, during the pre-launch ceremony on Wednesday, said users will be able to store and transfer cryptocurrency among subscribers and merchants as an alternative means of payment.
