Overview
- The planned framework links JPMorgan’s Kinexys Digital Payments with DBS Token Services to enable cross-bank, cross-chain transfers.
- The banks say the system aims for 24/7 real-time settlements that reduce reliance on traditional payment rails.
- A stated use case allows a JPMorgan deposit token on Coinbase’s Base to pay a DBS client for redemption or custody on DBS’s platform.
- Both firms stress compliance, data privacy, and preserving the singleness of money as tokenized deposits move between networks.
- No launch timetable or participant scope has been disclosed, with the effort aligning with broader interoperability work as BIS reports about one-third of banks exploring tokenized deposits.
