Secure Stablecoin Payments: Introducing Digital Signatures

TL;DR: Mural is proud to announce our latest feature: Digital Signatures. This new feature changes how you interact with our platform, combining ease of use and enhanced security. Using passkey technology, Digital Signatures allows you to approve transactions with your fingerprint or facial recognition. Now, all you need to use Mural is your device and a bank account.

Our Vision Behind Digital Signatures

From hundreds of hours of demos, discovery calls, and onboardings, we found that businesses deeply care about security of funds and ease of access.  As such, we have built powerful functionality that allow you to use Mural with your biometrics such as your fingerprint or facial recognition to approve all sensitive actions.  Additionally, there is now no need to have prior blockchain experience or knowledge, you can simply get started and see it for yourself.

Previously, using Mural required an external wallet from a third party, such as MetaMask or WalletConnect. This requirement often deterred potential users, causing them to avoid trying stablecoin payments. Mural's Digital Signatures are here to change that.

We've seamlessly blended convenience and efficiency to offer an innovative solution that simplifies onboarding and transaction approval processes and significantly bolsters security. We aim to make financial operations effortless and secure for our users, integrating cutting-edge technology to elevate the Mural experience.
