# P2P Protocol
|
|
|
|
**Type:** Decentralized fiat-to-stablecoin on/off-ramp protocol
|
|
**Status:** Live, generating revenue
|
|
**Focus:** Emerging markets (India, LATAM, Southeast Asia)

|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
P2P Protocol is a non-custodial fiat-to-stablecoin on/off-ramp that matches users to merchants onchain for direct fiat-to-USDC exchange. The protocol leverages ZK-KYC and onchain incentives to facilitate trades without custodial intermediaries.
|
|
|
|
## Market Position
|
|
|
|
Targets emerging market fiat-to-stablecoin conversion, a market estimated at tens to hundreds of billions of dollars in annual volume with billions in gross revenue. These markets face high spreads, fraud rates, frozen accounts, censorship, data leaks, and money laundering risks.
|
|
|
|
The protocol is counter-positioned against centralized incumbents like Binance P2P through its non-custodial ZK-KYC architecture.
