- They formed a new company in the Netherlands and plan to issue the token in the second half of 2026, with individual banks offering stablecoin wallet and custody services to support interoperable digital assets.
- Market data show stablecoins could challenge Tether and Circle as analysts warn bank-issued coins may draw $1 trillion from emerging markets and JPMorgan projects $1.4 trillion in dollar demand by 2027.
- Longer-Term, tokenized G7 currencies could challenge the dominance of SWIFT and Visa, potentially reshaping the $100 trillion payments market as banks embrace blockchain innovations.
