JPMorgan Leverages Blockchain for Dollar Trades, Cites Strong Bitcoin Demand

JPMorgan has partnered with six Indian banks to settle interbank dollar transactions using blockchain technology on its Onyx platform. This pilot project aims to enable 24/7 transaction settlement, which is much faster than the traditional system that takes a few hours and is not available during weekends and public holidays. JPMorgan also predicts a surge in Bitcoin demand due to the upcoming halving event and the increasing price of gold, which is considered a safe haven asset. JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon expects a pause in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve but warns of potential harsh impacts on the market.

  • Fed Governor Bowman: Be cautious about rate cuts

    Federal Reserve Governor Bowman said there are upside risks to inflation and the continued strength of the labor market, indicating that she may not be prepared to support a rate cut at the next meeting of U.S. central bank officials in September. She said that the progress made in reducing inflation in May and June was welcome, but inflation is still above the committee's 2% target, which is disturbing. I will remain cautious when considering adjusting the current policy stance. She also said that U.S. fiscal policy, the pressure on the real estate market from immigration, and geopolitical risks may all put upward pressure on housing prices, and the recent jump in the unemployment rate to 4.3% may exaggerate the extent of the cooling of the labor market.
