Not just faster wires — it’s building the rails for digital money’s future, powered by CBDCs & ISO 20022.
2️⃣ What is a CBDC?
CBDC = Central Bank Digital Currency — official digital cash by central banks.
Unlike Bitcoin, it’s state-controlled, yet still allows wallet-to-wallet transfers without banks — instant, cheap, secure.
3️⃣ Why ISO 20022 Matters:-
ISO 20022 is the new global payment standard.
