Will #Sikoba replace the banking system?

Sikoba is not a bank replacement, it is designed to bring #credit trading back to people alongside bank money.

In Germany, until a few decades ago, promissory notes (“Wechsel”) were routinely used by #SMEs - until bank credit became easily accessible.

Do I need to have a bank account or cash to get started?

No, you do not need a bank account or cash. You can simply download #SikobaPay, find other users whom you know or already do #business with, and start accepting their #credit.

How does the #SikobaPay determine user’s #creditworthiness?

Our users are strongly encouraged to grant #credit lines only to users (individuals & companies) they know and trust personally.

#Sikoba #IOUeconomy #financialinclusion #SMEs #sustainability #SocEnt

#Sikoba is targeted at small #business owners, traders & artisans who do not necessarily know about #crypto. Our users will be interested in the functionalities rather than in the #blockchain aspect.

Our approach focuses on usability, meaning that users do not necessarily need to know about private key management, as practical account recovery methods are available.

Credit conversion allows #SikobaPay users who do not know or trust each other to transact using #IOUs through trusted intermediaries. The most important rule is that users will only ever have credit exposure to those they have expressly chosen to #trust.

Sikoba’s fuzzy clearing  mechanism enables tallying & offsetting of debts and credits on a rapid and ongoing basis. As a result, #money is only needed to repay residual balances rather than the full financial value of all trade. Therefore, much less money is needed for the same volume of trade.
