Chainlink Facilitates Cross-Border Digital Currency Exchange: A Milestone for Real-Time Settlements

Chainlink has made history by enabling a cross-border digital currency exchange between Hong Kong and Australia. This innovative feat was facilitated through the company’s CCIP protocol, with ANZ issuing A$DC and HKMA managing e-HKD. The pilot program, supported by Visa, China AMC, and Fidelity, showcases real-time cross-border settlement feasibility and marks a significant step forward for global payment ecosystems. The event sparked a surge in Chainlink’s LINK token value, highlighting the growing trust and confidence in blockchain technology for financial transactions.
