  • Payment Proof - a cryptographically secure way to prove that a certain transaction really occurred. More details here

  • Optional password protection for every sent transaction for the more cautious

• Great gigging time during our First AMA Session with Beam’s Creator, Alex Romanov last week on our Discord. The audio file and its transcript will be published later
