It’s CU 2.0 Fintech Friday! Today, Amy McCaughey sits down with Rick Cranston from CULedger to discuss all things credit union, fintech, and digital innovation.
CULedger introduces permissioned blockchain technology to credit unions. Permissioned distributed ledger technology democratizes the financial system, allowing broad access to improvements in data storage, validation, and distribution. Distributed ledger technology can prevent identity theft and fraud, and they aim to be the first global digital credential for credit unions.
CULedger is an exciting new fintech to the scene. While they may be young, they have a very ambitious plan to become an industry standard in ledger solutions. Their technology builds on the highly-secure blockchain model popularized by cryptocurrencies.
However, outside of the financial arena, CULedger’s technology shares almost no other similarities with cryptocurrencies. Instead, they intend to turn their distributed ledger technology toward helping credit unions with ledger and payment platforms.
