OPEN is an exciting platform that has brought solutions to a major problem that has plagued the world of cryptocurrency since it came into use. Before now, application developers could not find an easy way to accept and integrate the use of cryptocurrency in their applications. It was difficult to code in the blockchain programming language because the process required them to learn the language for every blockchain. This situation proved to be extremely problematic for all application developers. OPEN has been able to create a way for app developers to accept and integrate cryptocurrencies into their applications. They are doing this with a two way system of communication between the back-end of an application and the blockchain system they interact with.
