Transparent and immediate payment is the basic need. To enhance and popularize digital payments and be more customer-focused, payments need to be made easy, fast, and highly secure. Blockchain technology has come up with the solution which addresses the payment security needs, transaction transparency and boosts the overall efficiency of financial transactions. The technology works on a no-intermediaries method that excludes the need for a primary regulator. Use Case – Peer to Peer Cross border transaction The main challenges in these cross-border payments are: Transaction Speed: It takes an average of three to five business days to complete a cross-border transaction. A significant time zone difference between the two involved currency jurisdictions plays a vital role. To settle each currency leg, the funds need to be transferred through the relevant domestic payment systems, and the operating hours of these domestic payment systems may vary across international time zones, hence delaying the settlement of the transactions.
