Stablecoins Stablecoins could be at the heart of the Digital Sector as they are going to allow the transfer of payments to be made for Digital derivatives, bonds, equities and property i.e. any asset that has an income stream. Stablecoins are also going to be a battle ground for the banks and global brands and the recent announcement by JP Morgan JPM Coin and Facecoin to be rolled out in India on WhatApp, I suspect is just the open salvo. It is hard to see how organisation can earn money from issuing and promoting Stablecoins but it does enable them to offer...

BLOCKCHAIN: JP Morgan mints crypto JPM-coin, exposed to $10 trillion opportunity
You know by now that JP Morgan launched a crypto asset called JPM coin. You've probably seen the self-satisfied memes showing Jamie Dimon publicly hating on Bitcoin, contrasted with his own massive bank launching its proprietary, closed cryptocurrency (leveraging open source software created by others) within a year -- and claiming it is a meaningful invention. Perhaps you've read that this is a first-of-its-kind symptom demonstrating that banks are finally coming into crypto. Cool, huh! Yet all of these reactions are mostly irrelevant to thinking about what's happened.
First things first. JPM has...

There are now an incredible 178 Crypto exchanges globally I suspect we will start seeing a consolidation of exchanges. Asia now dominating crypto volumes in terms of the trades being carried out and Bitcoin volumes continue to rise despite collapse in the price.

Russia sees no need to legally define Cryptos- Minister of Justice of Russia, Alexander Konovalov, has affirmed that he does not see the need to legally define cryptocurrencies just yet. According to him, cryptocurrency might be considered another type of asset in terms of Russian legislation, again urged legislators to avoid defining it at the current stage. The lack of clarity does not help the wider use of Digital Assets but Russia’s stance is understandable as if they start imposing too many restrictions and regulations this nascent industry will simply more out of Russia to more Crypto friendly jurisdictions. An alternative view is that Russia...

JPMorgan launched Cryptocurrency – How ironic Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JP Morgan has been one of the most vocal and critical of Cryptocurrencies yet his bank have announced that they are to launch their OWN Crypto currency the JPMCoin. It will be a cryptocurrency pegged to the US$ i.e. a stable coin with each JPM coin backed by one US$ and help their customers to cut transaction costs on international payments and for securities payments and improve the efficiency of their clients treasury departments so hopefully enabling them to make better returns on the capital that they have in...

Blockchain in the asset management industry – There are many projects being implemented using Blockchain technology. The creation of a new asset class allowing tokens, backed by equities, bonds, property ,FX, commodities etc in a digital fashion potentially to be traded 24/7 is going to enable asset managers to offer new types of funds. To date the focus has been more about how the technology is being used to reduce the onboarding costs of KYC and AML .Firms like Coinfirm , Blockpass can help with individuals and if you are when dealing with corporates that require real time ongoing KYC monitoring the...
