Problem

The platform leverages web3 technology and AI to provide users with Bitcoin savings accounts, virtual debit cards, and IBANs, enabling seamless global transactions. Through a Telegram Mini App, users can send, receive, and save funds in various currencies, including Bitcoin, and access lending and borrowing functionalities without needing a traditional bank account.
