PIP adds Web 3.0 functionalities onto traditional social platforms with billions of users.

Designed to bridge the gap between Web 3.0 and Web 2.0 ecosystems, PIP is a free web browser extension and also a suite of other payment products. PIP is built on Solana to connect scalable crypto-protocols with common social platforms like Twitter and Facebook and allow users to accept payments online. So that billions of people can seamlessly transact value without a single party's permission or a high intermediary fee. This article features an in-depth analysis of PIP to help you discover why it is the future of Web 3.0 payment.

First thing first: What is PIP?

PIP adds Web 3.0 functionalities onto traditional social platforms with billions of users. Users can buy and sell NFTs & send and receive SOL, PIP, SRM, USDC, RAY, and FIDA tips directly on platforms such as Twitter and Twitch. PIP's mission is to disseminate value around the world in the same way that the internet did with knowledge.

As opposed to developing a brand-new infrastructure and ecosystem every time a new cryptocurrency is launched, PIP bridges the blockchain world, represented as Web 3.0, and the web 2.0 platforms. PIP can wrap the entire web2 with crypto and potentially onboard billions of people to the web 3.0 payment.

How to Get Started With PIP?

Now that you know what PIP is, the next step will be how to use PIP. Install it from the Chrome extension, then connect PIP with a Solana wallet by using Phantom, one of the most popular Solana wallets. Creating a Solana tag will be your next step in order to allow token transfer between social platforms and Solana wallets. The Solana tag is also able to represent the user's unique wallet address.

Do not forget to connect your social media account like Twitter with PIP so that other PIP users will be able to connect to send and receive crypto via social platforms.

If your friend on the social platform is already a PIP user, he or she will receive your payment instantly. Otherwise, your friend must install the PIP extension and connect the Phantom wallet to claim the received crypto within 24 hours.
