The tbDEX protocol is an open financial protocol that can move value anywhere around the world in a more efficient and cost-effective way than what is possible through traditional methods.
Says Ham Serunjogi (Co-Founder & CEO, Chipper Cash):
This partnership is going to be hugely impactful, from enabling faster and less expensive consumer remittances, to leveraging tbDEX to unlock trusted, compliant transactions with verifiable credentials (VCs) and decentralised identifiers (DIDs) to accelerate the onboarding and identity verification of consumers and small businesses.
