We built Stocks into Kova
Tesla, Nvidia, the S&P 500: xStocks on @monad. Own a slice from $5, in a wallet you open with Face ID.
Prices, charts and holdings all work. The Buy button is waiting on one thing: an API.
@xStocksFi@krakenfx, let's make it live 🤝
Week 2 of shipping Kova on @monad DeltaV this week:
→ send dollars to any phone, no app no data. they dial a code and spend it
→ cash out from that same dial to a local bank.
→ pay ada.nad instead of 0x…
→ stocks on monad, live prices.
Next week is all about users.
Why we built sending dollars to phone numbers.
Most money apps assume you have a smartphone and internet. Hundreds of millions of people don't. Sending money home still means high fees, slow transfers, and a currency that loses value.
So imagine this: you send $50 to your grandma back home. She has a basic phone and no data.
She gets a text: the dollars arrived. She dials a short code, enters her PIN, checks her balance, and pays. No app, no internet. And anyone she knows can do the same.
She cashes out to mobile money or local cash when she needs it. Dollars in, local money out, on any phone.
It settles on Monad in about a second, and Kova pays the fees.
We think if you solve a real problem, you will get users This is one we chose.
