Celo, a mobile-first blockchain platform, allows you to transfer value in crypto quickly from your smartphone. Celo network and its token aim to make cryptocurrency payments more accessible for the average investor, less expensive, and less intimidating for those who aren’t already invested in cryptocurrency.

With CELO, you can link your phone number to a cryptocurrency wallet that supports CUSD and CELO. A hash of the phone number gets stored on the blockchain, which ensures that any payments made to your phone number only go to you. Celo verifies your phone number using a series of authentication methods to finalize account creation. Celo charges a small fee to verify the phone number and you can connect multiple phone numbers to a single wallet address. Polychain Capital CEO, Olaf Carlson Wee, once described Celo as “the WhatsApp for money.
