FinTech-companies and cryptocurrencies

Send Request
The application of modern technologies means payment and financing methods have been repeatedly questioned and reinvented in recent years. FinTech entrepreneurs are revolutionising traditional banking and financial services with technical applications that offer significant advantages in fast payment processing, low transaction fees and the avoidance of intermediaries. This opens new possibilities, such as debt financing (keyword crowdfunding) or Mobile Payment Solutions. In this context, the cryptocurrency Bitcoin is one of the most important innovations of recent years, with a potentially wide scope of future applications. Particularly important and innovative is the so-called Blockchain technology, which is the technology behind the peer-to-peer system of Bitcoin, recording all transactions without exception.
