The investment bank also announced in November that it partnered with Base for its connection to Ethereum (ETH), which allows seamless integration with other blockchain applications.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing it onto Canton would allow those dollars to move across a broader network shared by multiple financial institutions, rather than remaining confined to a single bank\u2019s ledger.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>The Canton Network is designed to synchronize transactions across markets\u2014such as payments, securities, and collateral\u2014while limiting who can see what. Supporters argue that this structure makes it more practical for regulated financial firms than fully open blockchains.<\/p>\n<p>According to Naveen Mallela, global co-head of Kinexys by J.P. Morgan, the collaboration \u201cmoves the industry forward in transacting on public blockchains.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The rollout will not happen all at once. Digital Asset and JPMorgan plan a phased integration through 2026, starting with the technical and operational groundwork needed to issue and redeem JPM Coin directly on Canton. Later phases may include introducing additional JPMorgan blockchain-based products, such as blockchain deposit accounts, to the network.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement comes amid a broader shift by Wall Street toward digital assets. Morgan Stanley recently filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission seeking approval to launch exchange-traded funds tied to cryptocurrency prices. Bank of America, meanwhile, plans to allow its wealth advisers to recommend crypto allocations starting in January, with no minimum portfolio size required.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the moves suggest that large banks\u2014once openly skeptical of crypto\u2014are increasingly focused on building regulated, bank-controlled versions of digital money that can operate alongside traditional markets rather than replace them.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JPMorgan Chase is taking another step toward making digital money work inside mainstream finance, announcing plans to issue its JPM Coin directly on the Canton Network, a blockchain designed to&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19396,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19395","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cryptocurrency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19395","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19395"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19395\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19397,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19395\/revisions\/19397"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19396"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19395"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19395"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19395"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
