Project portal
Local stablecoin apps and P2P marketplaces match your USDT or USDC with someone who pays you in local currency by bank or mobile money, with the coins held in escrow until you confirm. Here is what people actually do with it, gathered from 8 solved problems and 1 Unlock.

who needs it most

from: Get paid from abroad, no bank needed →students abroad paid by family: Small, frequent transfers get crushed by flat wire fees.
from: Get paid from abroad, no bank needed →Nigerians in the UK, US and Canada: Monthly support payments add up, and the gap between quoted rates is large.
from: Sending money home costs too much →parents paying school fees in Nigeria: Fees are due on fixed dates and holding dollars avoids converting early.
from: Sending money home costs too much →siblings abroad sharing one parent's upkeep: A shared Safe lets each sibling top up one pot and see every spend.
from: Sending money home costs too much →freelancers paid by foreign clients: Banks often freeze accounts that receive unusual foreign or P2P payments.
from: My bank froze my account →people in countries with sudden capital controls: A single-bank life leaves no way to pay for essentials during a freeze.

from: I have no card to pay online →travellers: Home bank cards are sometimes blocked abroad.
from: I have no card to pay online →freelancers after a payment app exits: When a service withdraws from a market, a wallet address is a backup that needs no reapproval.
from: Get paid even if your app is blocked →workers in countries under heavy FX controls: Holding dollars between paydays protects against sudden local currency moves.
from: Get paid even if your app is blocked →contractors paid by many small clients: One wallet address replaces juggling several apps with different country lists.
from: Get paid even if your app is blocked →adult-adjacent and edgy creators: Legal work is often dropped by processors over risk policies.

from: Stripe and PayPal don't serve my country →developers in sanctioned-adjacent banking systems: Card rails can be patchy; check sanctions rules first.
