Token Group Limited which is a company registered in England and Wales is the name behind the Monolith application. The Monolith app was initially available on iOS devices but now it is available on Android and can currently be accessed in 31 countries in Europe. This is an Ethereum planet where Ethereum, inter alia and ERC20 token, are supported. The good news is that there are plenty of ERC20 tokens and Monolith definitely thrives on this.

The Monolith Visa card can be used anywhere Visa cards are accepted. The card supports two fiat currencies namely, EUR and GBP. the card also supports Google Pay. as if that was not enough, the card is connected to a non-custodian wallet. The only downside is that investors based in the United States may not be able to use this card. The only way an American investor can make it work is by resorting to the cryptocurrency debit card list, picking one of the cards where there is a mark that shows the card is “ US Allowed”.

About Monolith

According to the Monolith CEO, Mel Gelderman, Monolith is all about promoting the Ethereum lifestyle. Monolith is a London based token startup and is all about providing financial solutions beyond traditional banking.

This token startup was financed by an initial coin offering in May 2017. The amount raised was $16.9 million. This ICO amount was turned into assets worth $25 million. According to Gelderman, they are deploying the economy to get their goals. Even when the price of ether was terrible in 2018, this startup still had enough runway thanks to their strategy.

The Monolith asset portfolio is impressive. 80,000 ether which is equivalent to $14.6 million, about $3 million in fiat holdings and $16 million TKN. Monolith has recently ceased selling and instead is collateralizing ether for DAI loans.

Monolith Features

The Monolith platform operates as a decentralized banking app whose sole medium is Ethereum. This platform has a non-custodian wallet, a card and offers tokens. This is a highly secure application.
