John Nahas, Chief Business Officer at Ava Labs. came in Official blog post“The future of global payments will not be built by a single company, product, or payment rail. It will be built by interconnected ecosystems. The Avalanche Payments Collective brings together organizations from across the payments spectrum with a shared vision of a more interconnected financial system, where money moves more efficiently, and businesses can operate globally with fewer barriers.”
By creating the alliance, these organizations plan to support payments flows that expand across more than 150 countries. It will cover 96 different currencies. It also plans to connect about 22 billion payment endpoints, including bank accounts, cards and mobile wallets.
The Tassat Lynq network will connect more than 30 participants, including Fireblocks, Galaxy and Wintermute. The network will bring transaction history from traditional banking. This will help the entire alliance improve liquidity while reducing delays compared to conventional railways.
“As payments infrastructure becomes more digital, treasury and settlement management are becoming increasingly interconnected. Payment companies are increasingly focused not only on moving money, but also on managing liquidity across markets and making reserves more productive. Avalanche provides a common environment where these workflows can begin to converge,” the blog post said.
There are also traditional asset management entities such as Franklin Templeton, with its signature BENJI fund, VanEck, and VBILL, a regulated on-net return product. OpenTrade and Grove will help payment companies make their reserves more useful using on-chain credit and revenue infrastructure.
The main purpose of the alliance is to bring compliance tools to blockchain in order to make stablecoins practical for daily treasury operations, cross-border payments, and more.
