Blockchains today are raw, rugged, and sometimes difficult to predict. And these unknowns can be unnerving for users and developers alike. We’re conscious of their challenges, and taking action to alleviate them — bringing compassion to the blockchain and adding a human touch to the technology. And we’d love for you to join us.
We’re humanizing the blockchain. By focusing on the user.
