European financial market is undergoing significant changes which head towards reducing the power banks and other traditional payment processors exert on their clients. Upcoming changes are forced by European PSD2 directive that has already been approved by the European Parliament. So-called Open Banking movement in Europe will increase competition from IT-based solutions and will facilitate the growth of digital banking applications and user proficiency.

ORCA Alliance already made a showcase of instant crypto to fiat withdrawal, the transfer from a cryptocurrency exchange straight to user’s bank account was completed under 6 seconds during a livestreamed event this June.

“The whole banking sector is being disrupted […] A couple of years ago it had been inconceivable to think that a startup can enter the closed market of retail and investment banking and take over a part of its market share,” said ORCA representative.

ORCA’s platform will enable integration of multiple bank accounts, cryptocurrency wallets, and exchanges into a single app of a device screen and will allow users to make transfers, payments, and deposits into and between connected accounts without ever leaving the application. To help users make sense of service offerings and evaluate if the offerings are meeting the actual needs of the users, ORCA is also implementing Smart AI function.
