[Swiss Digital Asset Infrastructure Provider Taurus Integrates with Swift Blockchain Ledger] Odaily Planet Daily News – Digital asset infrastructure service provider Taurus SA announced that its tokenization and custody platform has completed integration with the blockchain-based distributed ledger of the international banking communication network Swift. Taurus stated that following this integration, clients can connect their existing digital asset infrastructure to the Swift blockchain ledger and utilize tokenized deposits issued by banks to conduct payment transactions. The first batch of client integrations is expected to go live within a few days, with the first transactions based on this distributed ledger technology (DLT) anticipated to be completed within a few weeks. In July 2026, Swift announced that its blockchain ledger was ready for initial use, with 17 banks from six continents planning to pilot cross-border payments based on tokenized deposits through the system. Subsequently, Standard Chartered and HSBC completed the first real-time cross-border transactions supported by the ledger, enabling connectivity between their respective tokenized deposit systems. Swift stated that the blockchain ledger will serve as a coordination layer for cross-border payments, supporting 24/7 transfers of tokenized deposits on participating banks' balance sheets, while continuing to rely on existing financial infrastructures such as real-time gross settlement (RTGS) systems for final settlement during the clearing phase.
