It addresses the global issue of delayed B2B invoice payments—over$3 trillionlocked and50,000+ business failuresannually. The platform enables instant payments upon invoice confirmation usingzero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs)powered byvLayer, with all transactions executedsecurely and privately on the Rootstock testnet.🔍 Real-World Problem📉61%of B2B invoices are paid late.🧾 SMEs lack legal and financial resources to enforce timely payments.🔒 On-chain financial transparency is avoided due toprivacy concerns.❌ Cash flow gaps cause50,000+ business failures each year in the US.🚀 The Cash Out SolutionCash Out provides aprivate, verifiable, andtrustlessmechanism for invoice financing.✅ Instant liquidity for suppliers via zk-proofs of invoice confirmation and buyer solvency.🔐 Privacy-preserving financial verification (e.g., Binance/Bybit proof, cross-chain averages).⛓️ Entire lifecycle is on-chain: transparent, tamper-proof, and automated.📊 UsesPythfor reliable price feeds andRootstock Attestation Service (RAS)for claim validation.
