Since its launch in March 2020, the Celo Foundation has been tirelessly working towards empowering anyone who owns a smartphone to effortlessly access digital assets. The goal is to create an ecosystem that fosters a fairer and more inclusive financial system. We at LCX.com strongly align with the Celo Foundation on our mission to bridge the gap between traditional and decentralized finance with our new-age fully compliant products and regulated services.
Chuck Kimble, Partner at cLabs and Head of the Alliance for Prosperity, says, “We are excited to welcome LCX on board as our newest member. It’ll be another significant step towards growing our Alliance, which has grown to more than 135 Members. LCX.com is a key player in Europe and will help us help us on our path to create prosperity.”
Celo is an open blockchain platform that makes financial tools accessible to anyone with a mobile phone. The platform enables anyone to create an ecosystem of powerful mobile applications, ranging from easier cash transfer programs to peer-to-peer lending, international remittances to digital assets and wallets. Celo’s digital currency — the Celo Dollar stablecoin — provides people all over the world with a stable, secure, inexpensive, and easy way to move money and engage in financial activities that were previously inaccessible to them.
“Financial inclusion is vital to sustaining a healthy economy and thriving democracy, and we are proud to be collaborating with one of the leading organizations on the front lines of this effort,” said Monty Metzger, LCX’s CEO. “We’ve been impressed by the important work being done by the Celo Foundation, empowering anyone with a mobile phone to access digital assets and blockchain powered financial services.”
