Description
Dial Crypto is a multifaceted initiative aimed at fusing telecommunications with blockchain technology through its decentralized application (DApp) that rewards users with crypto for engaging in phone calls. By harnessing the power of blockchain for securing call transactions, it promises enhanced privacy and reliability in communications. The platform enables users to earn, spend, and withdraw crypto, effectively monetizing everyday phone activities and integrating them into the DeFi ecosystem. Originating from a successful presentation at ETHCapeTown in April 2019 under the "USSD For All" initiative, Dial Crypto's development continued through participation in Y Combinator's online startup school, culminating in winning the grand prize at the IDEO CoLab & CoinList Hackathon and securing a residency with IDEO CoLab in November 2019. With a focus on simplicity, utility, and accessibility, Dial Crypto also extends its innovation to feature phones through a USSD-enabled Bitcoin wallet, aiming to make Bitcoin accessible to a broader user base.
