SWIFT ISN'T JUST PILOTING - THEY'RE GOING STRAIGHT FOR THE JUGULAR The $150 TRILLION payments network is teaming up with Consensys (#Ethereum & #Linea backer) + 30 global banks to build a blockchain settlement system for real-time cross-border payments. Meanwhile, #Chainlink is already in play - piloting tokenized asset settlement through Swift rails using the $LINK infrastructure. Smart move. 👏 @Ripple - you built rails for a decade. Now the old gatekeeper is directly building new ones with Web3 partners. This is the arena you must dominate… all eyes on your next move. Let's go! 💪 $XRP 📹Chris Barrett

We are excited to announce a major industry milestone in a global corporate actions initiative led by Chainlink in collaboration with 24 of the world’s largest financial organizations, including Swift (@swiftcommunity), DTCC (@The_DTCC), and Euroclear (@EuroclearGroup). prnewswire.com/news-releases/… Corporate actions are a critical building block for public equity to operate successfully onchain. Building on the foundation established in the first phase of our industry initiative, we now have successfully demonstrated how the Chainlink platform, blockchains, and AI help solve one of finance’s most complex data challenges in a production-grade solution with unparalleled data accuracy, ISO 20022 messaging functionality via Swift, connectivity across DTCC AppChain as well as additional public and private blockchains, and much more. 🧵⬇️



We’re excited to announce a landmark technical solution enabling financial institutions worldwide to manage digital asset workflows directly from their existing systems using Swift (@swiftcommunity) messaging and Chainlink in collaboration with @UBS. prnewswire.com/news-releases/… With Swift messages and the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE), banks and institutions can seamlessly access blockchains through the same Swift infrastructure they have relied upon for decades. The first use case involved UBS Tokenize, the tokenization unit of one of the world’s largest private banks with over $6 trillion in assets under management. Subscriptions and redemptions for a tokenized fund smart contract from UBS were triggered using ISO 20022 messages through CRE and Swift infrastructure. CRE received the Swift messages, which then triggered subscription and redemption workflows in the newly launched Chainlink Digital Transfer Agent (DTA) technical standard. This new plug-and-play solution shows how transfer agents, financial institutions, and other entities can manage tokenized asset workflows onchain without upgrading to new infrastructure, replacing their existing processes, or integrating new identity and key management solutions.
