XLD Finance cryptocurrency is an application that combines cryptocurrencies, digital credits and payment services in one platform.
In this article, we will discuss:
Who is behind the XLD Finance cryptocurrency project?
Ian Estrada, the co-founder and CEO of XLD Finance, recognized the limitations of today's reward programs. He dreamed of creating a much-needed solution to this dilemma by establishing a blockchain-powered platform.
With the help of its team and advisors who have experience in various fields, especially in the field of blockchain and finance, they were able to unlock more benefits in consumer rewards and successfully introduced them to the world of cryptocurrencies.

What is the XLD Finance Token?
XLD Finance is an application that combines cryptocurrencies, digital credits and payment services in one platform. It provides users with the ability to purchase, pay bills and fund various transactions across the world using cryptocurrencies.
XLD uses Polygon network
Polygon is a scaling solution that provides several tools to improve speed and reduce the cost and complexity of transactions on blockchain networks. Through his collaboration with XLD, he leverages his technology to help the platform build decentralized applications (dApp) for multiple markets.
Since big projects including SushiSwap, Cure Finance and Aave trust Polygon Network and use its technology, it's a clear sign for XLD to trust Polygon's reliability when it comes to security and performance. Polygon is also one of the Ethereum layer 2 solutions.

The main purpose of the XLoad app is to provide users with multiple ways to earn cryptocurrencies, whether by getting involved in the XLD platform, buying prepaid credits or participating in partner projects.
Here are the other benefits users can get from using the XLoad app:

- Acquire tokens by completing in-app missions
Platform users can claim their tokens by linking their Metamask wallet to XLD's DeFi app, and XLD will guide them in properly setting up their digital wallets. After completing this process, users can participate in various transactions such as trading with other tokens and participating in the XLD Liquidity Program.

'Missions', which were mentioned earlier in this article, are very similar to tasks in mobile games, which provide users with rewards for every achievement.
XLD is also planning to introduce additional features like sweepstakes and mini-games for users to provide them with additional ways to earn more tokens.
In addition to these things, the platform is already collaborating with several telcos and other companies around the world that offer rewards programs and plans to integrate their offerings into the protocol.
XLD is also building a software development kit (SDK) that users can activate to exchange their reward points for XLD or their preferred reward engine.
Conclusion
XLD Finance not only aims to redefine what “rewards” should be, but also wants to introduce cryptocurrencies for more people, making access to cryptography as easy as possible, which would help in mass adoption of the blockchain. Through XLD, people don't need to have a financial account just to venture into digital currency. All they need is a phone, a browser and Internet access. This initiative would certainly open cryptos to millions of people in the near future.
