The financial application brings Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL), financing, and staking services to the metaverse.
Based on the official press release by Cyan, the startup project has secured its pre-seed round from one of the largest crypto investors Animoca Brands. With the investment, Cyan will become the first-ever protocol that offers collectors financing services to purchase non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Buy Now, Pay Later allows customers to acquire a product or service, in this case - an NFT, with an obligation to pay over a certain time period, usually without any interest.
