Conensys boss Joe Lubin has confirmed that SWIFT will leverage the Ethereum layer-2 Linea blockchain to build its crypto payments ledger.
SWIFT — the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication — will be building its recently announced blockchain payment settlement platform on Ethereum layer 2 Linea, Consensys CEO Joe Lubin has confirmed.
On Monday, SWIFT revealed that it had tapped Consensys and over 30 TradFi institutions to build infrastructure for a 24/7 real-time crypto payments system — but didn’t confirm which chain it would build on despite widespread speculation that it would be Linea.
However, Lubin confirmed Linea’s selection in a fireside chat with Cointelegraph’s Gareth Jenkinson at the Token2049 conference in Singapore on Thursday.
