- The goal is to become a go-to tool for regular financial activities.
- Bitcoin's 1.22% 24h gain reflects broader market optimism.
During an interview at TOKEN2049 in Singapore, Martin Masser, the director of strategic partnerships at ChangeNOW, emphasized the growing trend of crypto platforms seeking to emulate traditional banking apps.
Masser noted that users frequently engage with their banking apps for routine activities, such as checking balances, and crypto platforms aim to achieve a similar level of regular interaction.
This ambition is part of a broader strategy to transform crypto platforms into 'super apps' that serve as comprehensive financial hubs for users.
The push for increased user engagement comes as the total crypto market cap stands at $2.85 trillion, with 
Bitcoin experiencing a 1.22% increase in the last 24 hours.
The broader market is showing signs of optimism, with the Fear & Greed index at 55, indicating a 'Greed' sentiment.
Since this brief published about 1 hour ago, JUST (JST) has moved from ₹13.25$0.1394 to ₹13.31$0.14 — +0.42%.

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 JST ≈ ₹14.54 (about $0.14), down 0.2% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 9.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
