What is Firmo?
Hello everyone,

Today I will talk about [Firmo](https://www.firmo.network/) and how it can (and will) change financial systems based on crypto-currencies. It is not just interesting for entrepreneurs but also for you, the user.

So, let's get started!

## The current situation
Cryptocurrencies become more and more popular and therefore a lot of companies plan on using cryptocurrencies as a payment option - not only to sell products but also to buy goods. The advantages are obvious: Anonymous, fast and most importantly: Easy to use - no banks needed, no waiting for redemption of payments, all money at one place.

**But the problem is:** The crypto-space is very unstable, a lot of cryptocurrencies fluctuate in value daily and it is difficult to calculate with them because you don't know how much they'll be worth in a few months. 

So imagine: You're a businessman (or -woman) with your own cafe and work with cryptocurrencies. So you buy goods and sell your stuff for (let's say) - Ethereum. Your problem would be that you could not plan with that because it could be that you pay more for your goods (because the price is high at that moment) and get less for your products (because the price is low when you sell).

## What Firmo offers
You already know the problem, now let's move on to the solution: [Firmo](https://www.firmo.network/). 

They offer a platform where entrepreneurs can sign a *smart contract*. 

**What does that mean exactly?** It's simple: Firmo offers financial contracts, so entrepreneurs can receive money today but pay for it later.

So Firmo offers a secure way for companies to handle their financial need, for example for buying goods. It makes them more flexible and ensures they can act freely. Currently it works with *Ethereum* but it'll work with other cryptocurrencies in the future as well.
