What is Pigzbe?
Pigzbe is a decentralized application that allows people to create their own enclosed, autonomous financial networks and to exchange money within them. Decentralisation means that no central authority is needed for operation. Anybody can participate and the degree of decentralization increases as the number of independent participants grows. The complexity of linking existing banking systems causes delays and inefficiencies which increase costs to a level that limits practical minimum transaction sizes. By employing distributed ledger technology, we circumvent the current convoluted, centralized global payment infrastructure, creating efficient and trustless networks. Pigzbe uses the blockchain to make money transfers within families borderless, safe, and instant. By unlocking the potential of globalized families as micro-financing networks, Pigzbe teaches children about money in the 21st century.
The pigzbe goal is to help children and their families learn the principles of 21st-century finance through cryptocurrency savings and hands-on play. Financial literacy will be an important 21st-century skill, and finding ways to introduce earning, saving and managing money principles at a young age will help children begin to develop these necessary skills. Pigzbe is a part physical and part digital piggy-wallet for children aged 6 and up, powered by Wollo, your child’s first cryptocurrency. Think of Pigzbe as a friendly, tangible financial assistant that will teach children the principles of modern money in an exciting and safe system that harnesses children's natural drive to learn through self-correcting, practical experimentation. Wollo is Pigzbe’s native token, and when used with the Pigzbe digital wallet and physical device, provides an effective, age-appropriate learning experience for children, while enabling families to come together as microfinancing networks.
Pigzbe is here to contribute to the building of an open, decentralized world where financial education is accessible to anyone, anywhere. Our goal is to accelerate the uptake of cryptocurrencies globally with a token, and a product, designed to empower the young and young at heart. Pigzbe combines the latest in connected technology, tangible interface design, and blockchain technology to reach an underbanked generation of children and families by ushering in a new piggy-banking paradigm powered by their children’s first cryptocurrency and hardware wallet. We call it a piggy-wallet!
Pigzbe is an educational product focused on the family-tech and ed-tech markets, and the safety of families is key. One mechanism to enable this is to ensure that the primary account holder has the greatest view and control over who is interacting with their children, whilst also ensuring the delivery of a swift, fun and dynamic experience. A ‘family network’ is created when a primary adult account holder and an associated child’s account are created. The primary account holder controls membership to the group and associates these memberships to the child’s account.
