IBM has launched beta capabilities connecting its Digital Asset Haven platform to Swift's blockchain ledger, enabling financial institutions to settle tokenized deposit transactions 24/7. The integration is designed to let banks instruct transfers using standard Swift payment messages and maintain existing compliance processes, avoiding operational restrictions tied to traditional banking hours.[1][2][3][4][10][11][13]
