Good People, the numbers look great: portfolio Bitfxt’s BoundlessPay which launched two weeks ago has processed a total value of $40,000. CEO Franklin Peters Odoemenam just shared the data. Also, reviews are in at Google Play and from 38 reviews, BoundlessPay app has 4.9/5.
The Boundlesspay app turns your phone into a mobile bank! The users are given access to a digital wallet which enables them to store and spend cryptocurrencies with ease. This is the first indigenous company in Nigeria with a crypto exchange, decentralized finance “currency” (BitDefi) and mobile-app linked to physical debit cards in Africa.
Talk to Franklin on how to partner or learn more here .
More so, it connects to a community of products with a stablecoin powering decentralized finance, BITDeFI, which is available on Coinmarketcap. I want to thank our team, led by blockchain oracle, Franklin Peters, for executing at a high level. Please go and download BoundlessPay at Play store here.
Now, we have an exchange, a mobile “bank” and a DeFi, and are positioned to implement and execute any blockchain and crypto-related projects to power local and global commerce. To join this party, talk to Franklin.
(Bitfxt will run a session lab on Blockchain and Decentralized Finance during Tekedia Mini-MBA 4 to help our members master the practical business systems in this evolving sector. We have added it in curriculum, last page below)
