BlockFi

Founded in 2017 by Zac Prince and Flori Marquez, the company was created with the goal of providing credit services to markets with limited access to simple products like a savings account. The old way of doing things doesn't cut it anymore. With BlockFi, you can use cryptocurrency to earn interest at up to 8.6% APY, borrow cash, and trade currencies.
