Gateway to Onchain Finance



Excited to share that we have joined the @Circle Alliance Program, a global community of teams focused on bringing the world onchain, powered by USDC!




Winning the cross border remittance game will depend on two things: 1. How well you can build/own the rails. 2. How well you can attract users and own the market. For 1, what’s the fate of remittance startups like Accrue and co when retail distribution giants like OPay, moniepoint and palmpay and flutterwave finally embed PAPSS via an API. This affords at least 50 million users the ability to send money from Nigeria to 21 African countries (and counting). What becomes the fate of the investors who have doled out good funds to remittance players who do not own the rails? That’s your SOM getting wiped out overnight. For 2, remittance is a big market, but it’s about the most niched market. I’m certain of at least 10+ niches from my Cryptomomo marketing experience. We found a remittance niche no one was catering to, and have decided to let go of other fringe markets(that brought us to the game). The winners of the remittance race, who rely on third party rails without insane basic distribution would own one or more niche completely. So I understand why @_Nwosu_ doesn’t joke with his Aba traders and why @dgoflife doesn’t play with his idumota traders. And why @A_Feranmi’s Timon is focusing on travellers. We’re glad to have portfolio companies playing in both categories, creating and betting on the future.
