Tokenised deposits & stablecoins 🪙

* 🪙 Tokenised bank liabilities: major banks are trialling deposit tokens that live on programmable ledgers, enabling 24/7 transfers with less counterparty risk than private stablecoins.

* 🌍 Regulated stablecoin experiments: pilots such as JPM Coin, Onyx's Partior and Project Mariana explore wholesale cross‑border uses, while central‑bank digital currency pilots focus on retail remittances.

* ⚖️ Challenges: liquidity rules still require intraday buffers, and token transfers need robust KYC/AML controls; regulators are crafting new frameworks.

* 🔍 Potential impact: tokenisation could remove one correspondent hop on certain corridors, but widespread adoption is years away.

Why it matters: Token projects hint at an always‑on future, yet today's payment rails still require careful SSI management. Keeping pace means monitoring innovation without overcommitting resources.
