We live in a world of financial throttling, where money’s flow is capped by the capacity of the existing financial rails. Not only is it throttled but also heavily intermediated, siloed and costly; these are more pronounced in the developing world unfortunately.

Existing financial rails can be combined with the Bitcoin blockchain and the Lightning Network to make them faster, cheaper and interoperable. This powerful combination has the potential to bring finance to anybody and everybody; whether its an individual a business or a sovereign nation.
