      JPMorgan is breaking new ground with the launch of JPMD – a “public-permissioned” stablecoin-like token that combines the interoperability and 24/7 settlement of a public blockchain with the regulatory controls and credit backing of a traditional bank deposit. In this post, Olaf Ransome revisits his long‑held view that tokenized deposits only work “inside the four walls” of their issuer, explains why JPMD’s hybrid model changes the game, and explores its far‑reaching implications for institutional liquidity, payment rails and the future of financial services.

      Image for: How to process Stablecoins and Tokenised Deposits

      Stablecoins, tariffs and the papal conclave have an oligopoly on the news headlines right now. Simon Taylor, who is one of those who I think really gets the FinTech space and its impact on financial services just posted: “Stripe just declared war on banks with their stablecoin financial accounts.” That alone is worth a read. I want to explain where banks will struggle with processing Stablecoins. And I’ll throw in a few words on things Tokenised Deposits too for free.

      Image for: Digital Assets – the Trump Effect

      Around things digital assets we have huge momentum. Who is going to win? To understand where we might be headed, I caught up with somebody who thinks about things crypto aka digital assets for a living. Kenny Hearn, the Chief Investment Officer at SwissOne Capital, a specialist asset management company with a focus on institutional grade crypto and blockchain investment funds. Kenny spends his time thinking about who the winners and losers are going to be. He shared his thoughts on what he sees as the differentiators, and just as importantly his view on what is important for institutional investments to be made. This is not investment advice, just a view on how the digital asset space will develop. If you do want investment advice, feel free to contact Kenny.

      Image for: The Trump Effect on Digital Assets and Stablecoins - Olaf Ransome

      Digital assets are on the Trump agenda. Amongst the flurry of Executive Orders signed in the White House was a directive on things Digital Assets (see comments for link). Trump was expected to be “pro Crypto”. This order tastes better than “just Crypto”; in my opinion it is “pro Digital Assets” ice cream with a generous sprinkling of “America first” on top, but bureaucrats don’t get one of whatever it is “this” turns out to be. Read on for more, and please do share a comment or two.

      Image for: Stablecoins are becoming just like money - Olaf Ransome

      What good are stablecoins? The news, or at least my news, is that they are starting to be used beyond the world of crypto for things we normally associate with money; a store of value, a medium of exchange and a means of payment. The new is converging with old. In this month’s post I shed some light on how stablecoins are being used like money and why this might matter to you as an individual or as a business.
