SWIFT Goes On-Chain: #Linea Payment Revolution đ @Linea.eth
Big news droppingâSWIFT's piloting blockchain integrations (announced Oct 29, 2025), and $LINEA (Consensys' zkEVM zk-rollup on Ethereum) is front and center for redefining cross-border payments. Here's the short scoop:
The Shift: SWIFT's traditional network (handling $150T+ annually) is teaming with Linea for faster, cheaper on-chain settlements. No more 3-5 day waits or high feesâLinea enables near-instant USDT/EUR transfers via zk-proofs, slashing costs by 90% (sub-$0.01/tx). Pilot starts Q1 2026 with banks like HSBC testing CBDC-stablecoin bridges.
Why Linea?:Full EVM compatibility plugs into existing DeFi tools; zk-tech ensures privacy/scalability (10K+ TPS). Anchored to ETH for security, it's perfect for global railsâremittances, trade finance in Asia/EU/MENA. Early integrations: Circle's USDC and Tether for compliant flows.
Impact: Unlocks $5T+ in trapped liquidity; could boost ETH adoption as L2 king (Linea TVL hit $2B last week). Headwinds? Reg hurdles and oracle reliability, but SWIFT's stamp = massive trust.
This is crypto meeting TradFi head-onâpayments just got futuristic.
