Reltime, a Norway-based firm founded in 2018, recently told MicroCapital it will launch a “decentralized banking ecosystem” allowing anyone with a smartphone and internet access to engage in the following: peer-to-peer (P2P) borrowing and lending, currency exchange, and domestic and international transfers – all with no fees. The initial launch is scheduled to take place in Brazil, Europe, India, Japan and Mexico by March 2022. Reltime expects to expand the service worldwide by December 2022. All transactions take place using the cryptocurrency listed as “RTC” on BitMart, a platform based in the Cayman Islands.
