Spriggy Brings Home the Bacon

Pocket money super-app Spriggy looks set for rapid expansion after banking $35m in its Series B funding round, led by NAB Ventures.

The app, which helps families manage money movement by awarding pocket money and rewarding chores whilst empowering children to start managing their money responsibly with a debit card, enjoys a rapidly loyal following amongst its 500,000 family user base.

This user base will likely provide the leverage for new product initiatives, as users progress on their family financial journeys into a broader range of financial tools.

Is cryptocurrency now legitimate (not just for the criminal groups?)

We've all seen the ransomware headlines - not a day goes by that a threat actor group doesn't post a cryptocurrency ransom following successful deployment of malware to a business' networks.But is the currency finally now mainstream? Recently CBA in Australia, started accepting and managing cryptocurrency (it struck strategic commercial relationships with regulated crypto exchanges and custodians).Visa is working through its Circle partnership to offer the currency, and Paypal is now live with Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, and Litecoin.Could we see regulators move to tighten the use and flow of the currency further?https://economictimes.indiatimes.c

The KEY to fix crypto's security vulnerability

Cryptocurrency is on the rise. Australia’s technology pioneer Peter Kazacos OAM of KAZ is bringing KAZ quantum security technology, in partnership with Quantum Digital Assets Limited. The industry-first solution is set to revolutionise cryptocurrency security by using quantum technology to fight quantum computing and upgrade the cryptography of existing protocols (like Bitcoin). Using real quantum phenomena, the quantum tunnelling of electrons are totally unpredictable and entirely random to produce quantum cryptographic keys. Theoretically this is impossible to reverse engineer and breach. This has the capability to solve crypto’s security vulnerability and remove threats posed by quantum computers.
