Metallicus is bridging the gap between TradFi and DeFi.At Metallicus, we believe that money should be highly useful, highly accessible, and highly capable. Most people tend to agree with this assessment, which is why the shift from cash to debit/credit transactions happened in the first place. Now it's time for money to evolve to the next stage through a deep integration with cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. The products we're building are designed to make cryptocurrency more useful, accessible, and capable than ever before.A major part of Metallicus is the Proton blockchain. Proton is the payments blockchain - programmable money that works. Proton uses a system of human-readable verified @names to approve transactions, receive funds, and ensure the ecosystem stays people-friendly. Capable of up to 4,000 transactions per second, and with zero gas fees, Proton is a simple and accessible way to make cryptocurrency swaps, microtransactions, NFT trades, and more. Plus, because the Proton blockchain is energy efficient, it drastically cuts down on the carbon footprint of blockchain transactions, offering an ecologically friendly way to compute financial transactions.
