Powering mass adoption of cryptocurrency through discovery of information on the blockchain.

Who We Are
Tip is a third-generation blockchain platform powering mass adoption of cryptocurrency by creating
an ecosystem that connects end users and businesses on a network where they can transact easily across
international borders. Our solution for end-users provides user-friendly usernames that are easy to remember,
