The account is managed via a smartphone app and provides access to a [decentralized](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) payment card.  \n  \nBabb uses technology to bypass traditional banking networks and expensive 3rd parties to facilitate borderless P2P transactions across the globe.  \n  \nIn addition, partnerships with central banks allow for the integration and issuance of other digital currencies around the world, further stimulating local micro-economies and expanding the reach of the BABB solution and its underlying BAX token.[\\[6\\]](#cite-id-hn661rys5p)[\\[7\\]](#cite-id-kevhm7pn7cp)[\\[8\\]](#cite-id-2span0le63e)  \n  \n# Background  \n  \nBabb was born in 2018 because it envisioned a financially inclusive world. It firmly believes access to basic financial services is a fundamental human right irrespective of who we are, where we come from, our background or income, and a right that is paramount to ending poverty and socioeconomic inequalities while championing democratization, shared prosperity, & fairness.[\\[9\\]](#cite-id-hchcw855t67)  \n  \n# Overview  \n  \nBABB will redesign the economy from the ground up, transforming it from a rigidly hierarchical and exclusionary system into a decentralized and inclusive one. By combining blockchain technology, biometrics, and artificial intelligence, we are creating the future of banking, radically different from what the world has seen before.  \n$$widget0 [YOUTUBE@VID](5ybw0wWu0fQ)$$  \nThe World Bank serves the macro economy, whereas BABB is the World Bank for the microeconomy. The ambition is a relatively simple one: everyone in the world should be able to open a UK bank account. The implications of a fully banked global society, however, are huge. This will be a global society of people using [smart contracts](https://iq.wiki/wiki/smart-contract) to make deals, leveraging their social connectivity to make better use of their money.  \n  \nBABB leverages blockchain, biometrics, and machine learning to offer revolutionary decentralized banking services for people across the globe. Regardless of background, location or income, BABB will offer a UK bank account to anyone in the world, helping increase financial inclusion and social integration, while also empowering local economies to generate wealth for themselves.  \n  \nBabb aims to connect people and businesses to a frictionless new global financial system that revolutionizes the existing micro-economic ecosystem through advanced technological, social, economic, and regulatory capabilities.  \n  \nBy combining social connectivity with accessible banking (social banking), we are building a global banking network fostering international collaboration and inter-community engagement.  \n  \nIn essence, BABB is building a [decentralized](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) bank powered by the blockchain, operating a full reserve and integrating digital currencies all around the world.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-5k7xnorkvya) [\\[2\\]](#cite-id-fzlkb2k9bzj)[\\[3\\]](#cite-id-4angwz1is8y)[\\[4\\]](#cite-id-zo1n8nud0bn)  \n  \n# Currency X  \n  \nCurrency is a bundle of [stablecoins](https://iq.wiki/wiki/stablecoin) that offers a trusted way to send remittances for very low fees.
