How will Blockchain revolutionize the Financial Industry

The decentralized ledger technology helps in lowering the costs, facilitate faster transactions with improved transparency among many other benefits. Blockchain thus helps reduce dependency on the traditional banking industry.

Interestingly, the world is seeing a rapid growth of crypto trading and exchange platforms, but even then, the conversion and deposition of fiat currencies to cryptocurrencies hasn’t really picked up. That said, started in 2014, Remitano is one of the fastest-growing peer-to-peer trading platforms today. This decentralized platform operates without the need for a banking partner and is invulnerable to financial regulatory bodies.

1. Remittances

Remittances, one of the areas where blockchain could be of great use. International payments are usually more expensive than local funds transfer and this can be tackled by the use of blockchain technology.

2. ATMs and mobile payment

Hybrid ATMs are another use-case. Using hybrid ATMS and blockchain technology together customers can easily convert their cryptocurrency to the local currency of any country.

3. Loans

Lending loans can also be made easier with DLT. Some companies like SALT Lending (Secured Automated Lending Technology) have already designed blockchain platforms using the ERC smart contract feature.

4. Insurance

Fraudulent issues are a major roadblock in insurance. Blockchain can be a promising solution, given its transparency feature. Insurers can coordinate better, as the distributed ledger ensures that transactions are time-stamped and records are immutable.
