If you've ever had to send money across borders to family, contractors, or even just between your own accounts you know how painful it can be.
High fees, long delays, terrible FX rates.
Yes I know, that's absolutely where crypto comes into play (best use case)
Problem is that non-crypto users aren't that familiar yet (we are good but your aunt might not be)
@EQ9_official actually has a good upcoming app launch for this imo.
Basically something using crypto rails behind the scenes but presenting it in a way that feels familiar to non-crypto users.
Think global money transfers with 0% fees, near-instant settlement, and self-custody but without needing to explain MetaMask to your aunt.
A combination of traditional finance and crypto-native flows.
Worth checking out imo.
Launch is imminent — here’s what you need to know:
