Peer-2-peer trading platform for bitcoin a la localbitcoins.
From Cointelegraph (3-2023):

"The company hit 10 million users worldwide and launched Bitcoin education centers in Nigeria and El Salvador to empower local communities financially. The foundation opened a Bitcoin Technology Center — appropriately abbreviated “BTC” — in Ghana to offer finance and technology education. The center was built in Kumasi, home to Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology — one of Ghana’s largest, most prestigious universities.

In November, Paxful removed ETH from its offering, citing Ethereum’s switch to proof-of-stake and centralization as the primary reasons."

Has a joint effort with Binance.
