Ok, today I want to speak about diamond in the rough, that I found just recently – Hydrogen Platform. While running fintech apps for the last decade the team saw how costly, complex, and time consuming it was to build a financial platform. And that's why #Hydrogen was founded, to change the status quo in fintech while impacting lives around the globe. Founded in 2017 and based in New York city with 27 employees, Hydrogen Platform already have a growing list of clients (including a few Fortune 500 companies), inordinate public, developers and crypto investors interest.

In short, Hydrogen is a platform and ecosystem for better, simpler, fairer, more transparent, and more affordable financial products, split in to 3 separate but interlacing divisions: #Atom, which enables any financial institution, lone developer or fintech startup to develop and manage an cutting edge financial application or global service in minutes, with a help of modular APIs. #Hydro, which allows financial institution to integrate decentralized, transparent and secure blockchain based solutions in their existing applications, without the need to create expensive infrastructure. And #Ion, which enables enables use of artificial intelligence for big data processing, machine learning and powerful insights.

If you are looking for examples, Hydrogen Platform already has one. Their first go-to market product is a blockchain based 2FA application #Raindrop (set to be released this month). Any company, that needs two-factor authentication can integrate Raindrop API to their systems and in few minutes, their users can download and use the application (available for free in the Google Play and iOS app stores) to authenticate themselves on the web. Isn't that amazing? Raindrop application will also serve as the foundation for future Hydro development, such as Snowflake (identity management) and Ice (document management).

Best of all, if you are lone developer or small startup (<100 employees), you can sign up free today, without any upfront platform fee and you will pay only when you will reach certain amount of users. If the user limit is reached, developer or startup need to obtain Hydro tokens for staking as they are given free access to use these APIs without the need for licensing. And if you are enterprise, you can just buy licence. Another great thing, if you just want to experiment, you can play in Hydrogen's sandbox before committing to a production release.
