From OpenAI to Blockchain: Joey Bertschler’s Vision for Crypto Wage Access
Joey Bertschler, a former OpenAI employee, is transforming financial technology with Volante Chain. This platform uses blockchain technology to provide employees with same-day wage access, moving beyond traditional monthly pay cycles. Bertschler developed Volante Chain to address financial challenges faced by those living paycheck to paycheck.
How Volante Chain Works
Volante Chain employs blockchain for transparent, low-cost record-keeping. It integrates artificial intelligence to assess employer default risks in real time. While AI handles pattern recognition, human oversight ensures system reliability.
Transition From OpenAI to Blockchain
Bertschler shifted from OpenAI to blockchain, citing limited growth opportunities for non-US employees at OpenAI. With $2 million in funding, Volante Chain now tests with users in Vietnam and Japan, planning broader rollout.
Future Outlook
Volante Chain progresses beyond its initial phase, combining blockchain efficiency with AI capabilities to create an inclusive financial solution.
