Cassava Network has launched the third version of its platform, featuring integration with noncustodial smart contract wallet UniPass, allowing users to use email addresses instead of seed phrases and gas.
In a move to onboard Africans from Web2 to Web3, the partnership enables users who create Cassava accounts to automatically sign up on UniPass, and have access to holding, sending and receiving on-chain digital assets across multiple Ethereum Virtual Machine blockchains.
Cassava Network co-founder Mouloukou Sanoh explained how African users and businesses can use the new version to enter the Web3 space. Sanoh added that while CB Coins — the reward tokens used in the network — exist off-chain at the moment, users will be able to swap them for on-chain assets soon. CB can then be used to purchase concert tickets and mystery boxes on the platform.
Regarding the use of the Cassava v3 for businesses, Sanoh said, “Cassava v3 provides a channel through which partners can grow their African market”. Business brands who partner with Cassava Network can also create communities on the network by using the new “community” feature to get engagement and followership on different platforms through task creation for users to engage in and earn rewards.
