- Technology
Find out how a large bank has managed to successfully execute on its innovation strategy by becoming the first bank in the world to issue a stablecoin on a permission-less public blockchain (Ethereum). ANZ has completed three landmark stablecoin transactions for customers. Two transactions were for the Smorgon Family Group which needed a stablecoin to buy digital assets, including carbon credit tokens from Betacarbon. The other transaction, involving the Australian Distillers Association and the Australian Tax Office, streamlines how distillers can remit tax – creating remarkable efficiencies for participants large and small.
Nigel explains each of these transactions but also how he manages to achieve such remarkable innovations inside a large bank. He also paints a bright picture for organisations that are looking to become more involved in the token economy because of the ability to use enterprise-grade service providers such as Fireblocks and Chainalysis. We finish with a discussion around the great opportunities for organisation from engaging with the Hedera Network.
If you are in an organisation and want to further your Web3 strategies, listen to this interview.
