⚡️BOLT Overview

1️⃣⚡️ What is BOLT? ⚡️
BOLT is a financial services engine enabling the value shift from platforms to people. 
We have seen the transition of Web 1.0 (Pages, such as personal websites) move towards Web 2.0 (Platforms, where users can participate, interact and create communities such as YouTube) to Web 3.0 (People, where we have permissionless and decentralised ecosystems created by people for people). 
It’s time to free the internet. Web users increasingly seek alternative ecosystems away from the restrictions and fees imposed by platform owners and corporations. 
BOLT’s mission is to enable users and brands to create and grow value on the new web through our ecosystem of products and services. 
Our growing ecosystem is powered by BOLT X, a gateway to finance on the blockchain, powered by decentralised finance applications. 
BOLT+ is one of the applications built on the BOLT X engine, which curates live streams from TV networks and independent creators from all around the world. 
The seamless integration between BOLT+ and BOLT X allows creators and audiences to trade, participate and grow assets in tandem with streaming video content. 
We then unlock blockchain finance for the masses through multiple access points. Our partnerships with leading telco networks (such as Telenor and MTN Group) allow for mobile-native users across the globe to stream and transact on the go. Our inclusion within home entertainment systems (such as Hisense Smart TVs) allow for further awareness of the new web through media and entertainment. 
Through our ecosystem, our vision is to enable creative and financial freedom for users and brands across the world.
