The reason $FIGR is so fascinating to me even though it's a blockchain company is that blockchain here is treated as technology used to optimize real-world processes on existing real-world assets.

This is not a "making new assets" company at its core.

The LOS (loan origination system) is where $FIGR uses blockchain and modern tech to make the secured loan origination process much faster.

Just like $KLAR, $UPST, $AFRM and others used tech to enable a smarter and faster underwriting process, $FIGR is doing something similar.

This time- it's for secured loans, starting with HELOCs and mortgages.
