Accessible for All
Blockchains can't help people who cannot use them or reach them, so access is paramount
Removing Barriers
There are many barriers to full integration of blockchain technology: digital literacy, network access, and government opposition. EASE will eliminate every obstacle to adoption.
Reaching Every User
EASE addresses every major impediment to blockchain adoption.
Digital Literacy
The difficulty of using blockchain has been one of its biggest weaknesses in terms of adoption. Asking general users to use confusing, unfamiliar tools like crypto wallets, and risk the loss of all their assets if they make simple mistakes, is untenable for most users at lower levels of digital literacy. EASE interfaces are easy to use and understand for any app user.
Network Access
Blockchain transactions are much bigger than the API calls used by mobile apps. These can strain thin networks and use up much more data for users who may pay high data fees. It also requires more powerful device processors. EASE replaces on-device signing with a sequestered key management system for better access to networks. Worldwide, 3 billion people lack consistent network availability.
Government Opposition
Blockchain technology cannot reach mainstream adoption as long as governments oppose it. EASE gives governments one needed tool for regulating accounts without opening the floodgates of government account control. By providing the technical ability for governments to reassign control of an account to a court-appointed custodian, the EASE Protocol gives governments the tool it needs to govern, while preserving account owner control in all other situations.
