JPMorgan’s Onyx Coin Systems has scored another win in the Middle East with the completion of a blockchain-based cross-border payments pilot project with First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB). The pilot phase was “executed seamlessly with satisfactory response times,” according to a statement.
The FAB pilot wound up weeks after a similar test in Bahrain, where Bank ABC had been testing the Onyx system and proceeded to a limited launch of services. FAB said it was continuing to explore the opportunities the system offers.
