salimstartup··on Show HN: Crypto payment gateway with recurring billing
It is better

- it offers recurring payments, which are not offered by coin payments

- it is non-custodial, while current solutions, incl coinpayments are custodial

- merchant receives funds right away after transaction is completed (not next business day)

salimstartup··on Ask HN: How to issue credit in crypto without collateral
Question is - is there information (on the blockchain) that can help us prevent this?

Eg previous history of transactions

salimstartup··on Ask HN: How to issue credit in crypto without collateral
Not saying we don’t need to use data. Question is - is there a blockchain solution that would allow to lend, controlling risk, similar to how people do it with digital banks nowadays

In status quo - does the bank really have to know your name and ID? I think no, the banks just need the info about you - how much do you spend, how did you repay previous loans etc? I built some fiat lending scoring engines

For the sake of discussion: - can we use transaction information in blockchain to score? - can we use some kind of credit history on blockchain? - is there a way to make sure a single person doesn’t take too many loans using different addresses? Eg use some identify key, that doesn’t disclose personal info, but makes sure this key unique per user

Reach out to your personal network, qualify for the problem you are solving, present your solution, charge them (solving problems costs money), listen to feedback

Since it is a B2B solution - don’t try too much seo, marketing, etc whatever else founders use
