Rationale
Zengo is primarily a crypto wallet that allows users to buy, sell, and swap various cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum. It emphasizes security features like MPC and 3FA. While it offers the ability to "get paid in crypto" by converting paychecks, this is not equivalent to early direct deposit of fiat currency. It does not offer a prepaid debit card, stock trading, or traditional P2P transfers like Cash App. The security features align with fraud monitoring.
