Swift and Chainlink Achieve Seamless Tokenized Value Transfer
Swift and Chainlink have effectively facilitated the transfer of tokenized value across various public and private blockchains.
In an official statement, they highlighted the potential of their findings to alleviate obstacles impeding the growth and global scalability of tokenized asset markets as they evolve.
To assess their engagements with blockchain networks, both companies announced their collaboration with multiple financial enterprises in June. This group encompasses entities like BNP Paribas, BNY Mellon, The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, and Lloyds Banking Group.
In addition, Swift harnessed Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to establish connections with diverse blockchains. Launched in July of this year, CCIP is designed to facilitate the creation of cross-chain applications and services. Sergey Nazarov, co-founder of Chainlink, expressed that this initiative could potentially link various blockchains and banking chains.
Tom Zschach, Chief Innovation Officer at Swift, emphasized that seamless integration with the broader financial ecosystem is crucial for realizing the full potential of tokenization.
Moreover, the experiment underscored Swift’s infrastructure as a pivotal connectivity hub, effectively eliminating a significant barrier hindering tokenization’s progress and potential.
