Singapore - Canada Blockchain Payment steemCreated with Sketch.

in #singapore5 years ago

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and Bank of Canada (BoC) announced the completion of their first cross border blockchain payment to each other.

Both government organisations have been developing their blockchain projects for the past 2-3 years. And now we're are just starting to see the fruits of that labour.

As part of the distributed ledger technology (DLT) projects being pursued by both banks... MAS sent funds to the BoC without a third party.

Behind the scenes, JPMorgan, accounting giant Accenture, IBM, Blockchain solution specialist ConsenSys, etc. have been assisting with the development of their DLT platforms and networks.
