Peer Aurum is a DeFi application specialized in foreign currency exchange and remittance. We used blockchain technology to create cryptocurrency wallets and a decentralized marketplace that can serve as base infrastructures in the DeFi ecosystem. 'Flip' is the native wallet application that stores fiat-pegged stablecoins. Using 'Flip', we allowed users to exchange their fiat-pegged crypto on a peer-to-peer basis. The main value proposition that 'Flip' can offer is the interbank exchange rate and transparent fees in an FX transaction. Reference the demo attached to follow through the service procedure.
