Faster access to funds refers to the expedited availability of capital after a transaction or deposit. In the digital asset realm, this benefit is often realized through blockchain technology, which can facilitate near-instantaneous settlement of transactions compared to traditional banking systems that may involve delays. This rapid availability of funds improves liquidity for individuals and businesses, enabling quicker operational cycles and reduced waiting times for value transfers. It represents a key advantage of digital payment systems.
Context
The pursuit of faster access to funds drives significant innovation in both traditional finance and the digital asset sector. Blockchain networks are increasingly positioned as solutions for achieving real-time gross settlement, particularly in cross-border payments. Regulatory frameworks are gradually adapting to support these quicker settlement times while ensuring appropriate oversight and risk management.
