💳 Bleap: How Revolut is Building a New Bank of the Future on Blockchain
Two former Revolut employees, Joao Alves and Guilherme Gomes 💼 have created a startup called Bleap, which promises to combine traditional banking and blockchain.
They have already raised $2.3 million from investors to bring their idea to life!
What is this project? 🤔
Bleap is a blockchain banking app that does the following:
💵 Allows you to spend stablecoins (cryptocurrencies pegged to the dollar or euro).
💳 Works through a Mastercard debit card, meaning crypto can be used like regular money.
Why is this necessary? 🚀
• Blockchain makes payments fast and secure. 🔐
• No need to mess around with bank fees.
• And it just looks cool! 😎
But, I think for simple banks, analog ones, this is not very news😢. They rarely like it when competition takes away their bread and butter 🍞
