Mario Leoni, CEO of Nobank

Seed

Nobank believes in the promise of web3, which is a fairer, more inclusive, and ownable internet – based on blockchain technology.  

To access Web3, you need a wallet. But today, existing wallets are too complicated, too technical, and just not fit onboard the next billion users. 

Nobank tackles this problem by offering a next-generation wallet: a smart contract-based wallet that allows super simple interactions and transactions on a blockchain. 

With Nobank, everyone can invest in digital assets without intermediaries and interact with everything that Web3 has to offer: NFTs, gaming, art, digital identity, and much more. 

Their wallet offers the most advanced security measures in the industry, and their onboarding is so simple that everyone can create a wallet without the technical know-how required. 

Nobank is live on two blockchains – Polygon and Harmony. 

Insights:

They have: 

  • created >1500 wallets in the last two months
  • 500 monthly active and 250 daily active users
  • 2 partner projects live: a blockchain-based loyalty program for a Swiss retail company and an NFT-based winery collaboration
  • a partner pipeline of >15 partners that will collaborate with us over the coming months

Nobank is expanding on two fronts:

  • they are adding more blockchains (ETH coming soon) and more DeFi products that diversify a portfolio or generate yield
  • they are working on expanding our B2B(2C) offering for their partners.
