This is a great example of marketing for a consumer payments product that uses crypto rails. The technology should work in the background and be invisible

Code is the simplest way to send money to anyone, anywhere. Hand it to someone like cash, or send it through any messenger. Go to to get the new payments app everyone's talking about.

Climbing the wall of worry: - ETH has been a hated asset for the past year, hasn't enjoyed idiosyncratic tailwinds that BTC and SOL had - Fading every ETH/BTC bounce has been conditioned into every market participant - ETH 19b4 discussion then approval caught everyone sidelined

Everyone should read the @RAILGUN_Project docs - very cool how it works under the hood Also privacy needs to come back into the conversation - it’s half the reason crypto is here to begin with.

Privacy is normal. Railgun uses the privacy pools protocol ( ) which makes it much harder for bad actors to join the pool without compromising users' privacy.
