突出了

  • Cooperative展示了一种安全且可扩展的方式来连接多个区块链,以便在全球范围内移动标记化资产
  • Swift可以为金融机构提供单点入口,在利用现有安全基础设施的同时转移代币化资产
  • Experiments are part of Swift’s ongoing work to maintain strong, secure interoperability across a fragmented financial ecosystem

Swift发布了一系列新实验的结果,表明其基础设施可以无缝地促进跨多个公共和私有区块链的代币化价值转移. 这些发现有可能消除阻碍代币化资产市场增长的重大摩擦,并使其在成熟时能够在全球范围内扩展.

While tokenisation is in its infancy, 97% of institutional investors believe it will revolutionise asset management and be a positive force in the industry, not least because of its potential to increase efficiency, 降低成本和, by enabling fractional ownership, open up opportunities to more investors.

One issue challenging investors and institutions, 然而, is that tokenised assets are managed on different blockchains, each with its own functionality and liquidity profile. Interoperability between these blockchains is crucial, otherwise financial institutions must build connections to each platform, creating significant operational challenges and cost.

Working with more than a dozen major financial institutions and market infrastructures and Chainlink, a leading Web3 services platform, Swift has successfully demonstrated that it can provide a single point of access to multiple networks using existing, 安全基础设施, 从而大大减少了机构支持代币化资产开发所需的运营挑战和投资.

The experiments are part of Swift’s wider strategy to ensure secure, global interoperability as new technologies and platforms emerge. 他们以过去几年的工作为基础,展示了Swift基础设施如何支持金融界将中央银行数字货币(cbdc)和其他数字资产与新的和现有的支付系统连接起来.

汤姆Zschach, Chief Innovation Officer at Swift, 他说:“互操作性是我们在Swift所做的一切工作的核心,以促进价值在全球范围内的无缝流动. For tokenisation to reach its potential, institutions will need to be able to seamlessly connect with the whole financial ecosystem. 我们的实验已经清楚地表明,现有的安全和可信的Swift基础设施可以提供连接的中心点, removing a huge hurdle in the development of tokenisation and unlocking its potential.”

Swift collaborated with several major financial institutions on the experiments, including Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited (ANZ), 法国巴黎银行(BNP Paribas), 纽约梅隆银行, 花旗, 清泉案, 欧洲清算系统, 劳埃德银行集团, 六数字交换(SDX)和 存托信托 & 清算公司. Chainlink被用作企业抽象层,将Swift网络安全连接到以太坊Sepolia网络, 而Chainlink的跨链互操作性协议(CCIP)实现了源区块链和目标区块链之间的完全互操作性.

In addition to demonstrating that existing Swift infrastructure can provide a secure, scalable way for financial institutions to connect to multiple types of blockchain, 他们提高了对与商业和公共区块链交互的技术和业务需求的理解. 实验还探索了区块链互操作性协议的价值,该协议可以在现有系统和潜在无限数量的区块链之间安全地传输数据.

这些实验着眼于解决方案的设计和技术开发,以及围绕数据隐私和治理的考虑, 操作风险, 以及法律责任. Transfers of simulated tokenised assets took place – between two wallets on the same public Distributed Ledger Technology network; between two wallets on different public blockchains; and between a public and private blockchain network.

Swift将继续与金融界合作,以了解代币化资产采用的最具体用例,并相应地优先考虑其工作. It is anticipated that the most compelling case, 在短期内, will be in the secondary trading of non-listed assets and private markets.

What Our Participants Have to Say

Jennifer Peve, Managing Director, Global Head of Strategy & 存的创新, 说:

“As a financial market infrastructure provider, 存致力于共同构思和开发解决方案,以连接最广泛的市场参与者,确保创新解决方案不会形成孤岛,并提供最大的价值. 我们很高兴与Swift合作进行这项重要的实验,这在理解跨网络互操作性在未来的意义上迈出了有意义的一步.”

Nigel Dobson, Banking 服务 Portfolio Lead at ANZ, 说: “ANZ is actively exploring the use of decentralised networks and tokenisation via a ‘test and learn’ approach, particularly in underserved markets such as the trading of nature-based assets. 在现有金融市场基础设施和多个区块链之间建立互操作性对于更广泛的采用至关重要,因此我们自然很高兴参与Swift社区的这项实验.

Alain Pochet, Head of 客户端 Delivery, Securities 服务 at 法国巴黎银行(BNP Paribas), 说: “With the increasing number of blockchains, 连接我们的传统技术平台并确保区块链之间的互操作性的任务是我们必须克服的日益严峻的挑战. 在这方面, the experiment demonstrated the potential to leverage the extensive connectivity already established with Swift.”

Thilo Derenbach, Head of Business Development & Commercialisation for Digital Securities 服务 at 清泉案, 说: “As a provider of financial market infrastructure, 清泉案 has a key role in supporting the financial industry in its transition to the digital era. 推动数字化, supported by latest technologies and the tokenisation of assets, is a key topic for us at 清泉案. 像这样的联合伙伴关系和实验有助于推进行业创新议程,同时为现有和未来生态系统的互操作性提供解决方案.”

Stephanie Lheureux, Head of 数字资产 Excellence Centre at 欧洲清算系统, 他说:“我们很高兴参与了这个重要的项目,与其他金融市场基础设施(FMI)和机构合作,旨在通过互操作性实验切实释放DLT的价值. 作为FMI, 我们的创新方法是与我们的生态系统合作开发解决方案,目标是不断提高效率,降低成本和风险.”

Alexandre Kech, Head Digital Securities at SIX Digital Exchange (SDX), 他说:“这种互操作性练习对于理解银行和vnsr威尼斯城官网登入机构如何实现区块链对机构业务的承诺至关重要, 这是, 多党制的建设, regulated global digital asset agnostic trading, settlement and asset servicing 24/7 infrastructure for issuers and investors.”

Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder at Chainlink, 他说:“现在很明显,全球顶级银行和领先的市场基础设施都认为,整个银行业将更多地采用数字资产, and that this adoption will happen using multiple different blockchain technologies at the same time. The collaboration between Swift, over ten of the largest financial institutions, Chainlink也证明了跨链的互操作性对于在全球金融体系中实现下一阶段的数字资产采用至关重要. 结合Swift和CCIP时, 我们能够证明,现在即使是最大的银行和市场基础设施,也可以用最少的vns6060威尼斯城官网实现跨各种区块链的这种新水平的互操作性.”
