Today we're announcing and important partnership with @blocks (fka @Square ), to expand the power of the tbDEX protocol across Africa. This partnership is going to be hugely impactful from enabling faster and less expensive consumer remittances, to leveraging tbDEX to unlock
Had a great time unpacking Chipper ID's nuts and bolts with @andrewkimARK: real-time face matching to tackle fraud, on-device liveness for authenticity, and leveraging synthetic data for robust testing.
Really goes in how we at @chippercashapp are thinking around the broader AI,
It's so great to have @chippercashapp return to @ARKInvest's FYI podcast, this time with @sameez__, Director of Engineering at Chipper. We talk through Chipper ID, AI, and identity/KYC in Africa. Thanks Samee for your insights!

was pretty fun building this.
Since adding Pinecone to their tech stack, @chippercashapp
has seen dramatic improvements in their identity verification workflow. Check out the case study to learn how Pinecone helped them thwart fraudsters in real-time.
