Ripio Credit Network (RCN) is a blockchain based credit network that connects lenders and borrowers all over the world. RCN uses smart contracts for the transactions that are performed on its network, which are catered through its own RCN tokens.
Launched in 2016, the platform is based upon Ethereum. As such, the RCN token is an ERC-20 token.
The RCN token has slowly inched upward over the first half of 2019.
What Does Ripio Credit Network Aim to Do?
Ripio aims to cut through the middlemen and the costs that are associated with them in the lending world. By facilitating transactions between lenders and borrowers directly, the platform aims to minimize transaction processing times as well as the costs associated with loan applications.
Ripio Credit Network achieves the objectives in a simple manner due to its overall systems and processes being based upon co-signed smart contracts. This makes sure that the processing time and fees are minimized, with lenders and borrowers having complete control over the approval of any transaction.
The firm is based out of Argentina, and aims to expand the use of cryptocurrency throughout Latin America. It is currently functional in select territories in the region.
Ripio came about in 2016 and was revealed at TechCrunch Disrupt but has been around for a while now.
