Our project is focusing on the World Bank system and money-sending applications, such as Venmo, PayPal, and CashApp. The questions being investigated by our team are the history of these systems and defining features of them. We also are investigating the way people perceive these different systems. The final question we are investigating is the diversity of these two system types and how do they react to public complaints regarding prejudice.
