What exactly is truly innovative about Alipay? What features are missing from the current Canadian payments landscape that you feel Alipay can fill? Just curious.

Nothing is new in Alipay.

They developed an database called oceanbase and thought it would replace IBM's machine and DB2 for banks, they failed miserably because of the deep transactional nature of conventional banking is not working well in their system designed for online payment processing.

That's a out it.
