Abstract

Decentralized ledger technologies (DLT) made popular by bitcoin and other crypto assets did not create new moneys. One of the things they did create was an alternative channel of cross-border value transfers independent of correspondent banks. In response, banks engaged in international payments started to experiment with blockchains themselves. In this article, I review the current cross-border payment landscape from the point of view of DLT adoption and try to assess the potential of current and emerging solutions.
