BLOCKCHAIN MIGHT COMPLETELY REPLACE TRADITIONAL REMITTANCE BASED SERVICES

in blockchain •  7 years ago 

The blockchain is a public ledger in which transactions are recorded in real time at regular intervals. The ledger is organized in a manner that allows anyone to go back into the past and review transactions. In other words, an auditable track of all the transactions that ever occurred is kept. It is possible to find out where every coin has been, which is a very useful tool for the financial system and law keepers.

Traditional remittance methods like money orders, demand drafts and bank cheques, involving agents, take a few weeks to reach the beneficiary. If one uses a conventional remittance method like a bank cheque transfer, it is usually kept on hold by the bank authorities for 2–3 weeks, after which the transfer is conducted. Different agencies have different sets of rules and regulations, which have to be adhered to before the transfer can be initiated. Traditional money transfer agents are singular bodies and unavailable around the clock. Also, manual involvement only increases the risk of the transfer duty being miscalculated or misplaced and there is no tracking system to check the status of your transfer. Agents also tend to charge higher fees and the exchange rates offered tend to be unreasonable. Thus, the transaction expense doesn’t seem to be worth it and the transaction turns out to be ineffective for the remitter. Besides, with a financial institution, there is tiresome paperwork involved before the transfer can happen.

Hello & Cheers!! I'm a content detection and information bot. You are receiving this reply because a short link or links have been detected in your post/comment. The purpose of this message is to inform your readers and yourself about the use of and dangers of short links.

To the readers of the post: Short links are provided by url shortening services. The short links they provide can be useful in some cases. Generally their use is benign. But as with all useful tools there are dangers. Short links can be used to hide all sorts of things. Quite frequently they are used to hide referral links for instance. While not dangerous this can be deceptive. They can also be used to hide dangerous links such as links to phishing sites, sites loaded with malware, scam sites, etc. You should always be extremely cautious before clicking on one. If you don't know and trust the poster don't click. Even if you do you should still be cautious and wary of any site you are sent to. It's always better to visit the site directly and not through a short link.

To the author of the post: While short links may be useful on some sites they are not needed on steemit. You can use markdown to format your links such as this link to steemit. It's as simple as [steemit](https://steemit.com) Unlike short links this allows the reader to see where they are going by simply hovering over the link before they click on it.

This message was created by a bot. It is part of the ongoing fight against spam and phishing attacks on steemit. If you did not use short links in your post and feel you have received this message in error you can contact @fubar-bdhr on discord or @fubar.bdhr on steemit chat to report the issue.
