At present, you have to create an account with each financial app, fill out forms, submit documents such as your ID and then deposit money. This is also a lot of work for the back offices of financial services.
We are on a mission to change this by making it easier to connect money and data to your blockchain wallet. We believe that the blockchain wallet will become a single sign-on for finance. Kind of like sign in with Google or Facebook, but with way more features.
