Cryptocurrency has grown tremendously over the past years, with decentralized finance (DeFi) becoming one of the emerging high-value subsectors. According to DeFi Pulse, the total value locked (TVL) in DeFi protocols reached a peak of $87bn in 2021, up 8300% since 2020. This exponential growth caught the attention of many; acknowledging the potential that DeFi has, a recent report from the world-renowned Wharton Business School noted that it can “transform global finance”. This may be why, even since the pandemic-fuelled global financial regression, venture capital is still pouring into forward-thinking DeFi projects. One such startup is Scallop – The World’s First DeFi Powered Neobank.
A Unique Addition to CryptoAccording to its roadmap, Scallop is geared up for launch in September this year. It will initially launch in the EU and UK, with expansion into Asia scheduled for Q1 2022. Scallop will also introduce the Scallop coin, SCLP, which will empower their DeFi banking ecosystem. The IDO is expected prior to the product launch.
Scallop is unique in that it is providing the first interface for fiat and cryptocurrency/DeFi under a single roof. Currently users must deposit fiat on to an exchange or wallet from their bank account and then use the wallet to interact with DeFi protocols or purchase coins. Scallop, instead, will provide FCA regulated banking accounts which can directly interact with DeFi protocols such as Compound, Aave and dYdX.
What does Scallop offer?Scallop is the first FCA-regulated neobank that conjoins traditional banking services with decentralised functionalities. It is a solution to the challenges faced by the crypto industry, such as friction between moving crypto assets, high transaction costs of converting crypto to fiat, and the high volatility of the market.
Scallop is a multi-layered solution combined with superior technology and the latest financial trends in a single place. Among several other DeFi projects, Scallop shows the most potential to achieve the true goal of DeFi, which is mass adoption.
It is specifically designed products that rival the traditional financial services and will provide users with all the pros of traditional banking with added security and decentralisation. Scallop offers ten “X” products:
Scallop Earn, Scallop NFT, Scallop Banking Accounts, Scallop Cards, Scallop Pay, Scallop Multi-Currency Wallets, Scallop Money Transfer, Scallop Exchange, Scallop Cold Wallet, Scallop Chain
All of these products are powered by Scallop’s native token $SCLP, an ERC 20 token.
