Hi David! Thank you for sharing that link. I'm a reader of yours and never imagined you replying one of my comments. By the way thank you for the coverage in English you do about my country which summarizes many of the things that are happening here. And specially for reporting about the political context in which all of these is happening. As this is something not covered much by other news outlets. I was curious about Novi/WhatsApp because the potential it has for becoming a new widespread payment method due to the market share of WhatsApp in these countries. Not much about the underlying technology. So many transactions here involve sharing screenshots of bank payments confirmations or photos of bank deposit slips via WhatsApp messages. From small stuff to even loans, that Whatsapp could easily move from sending screenshots to sending payments by adding a "pay" button on their app. If they get the end user experience right, and regulatory approvals which is a bigger challenge by itself. I don't think the end users will think much about the underlying technology.
