Near-instant settlement refers to the rapid completion of financial transactions, where the final transfer of assets and funds occurs almost immediately after execution. This significantly reduces the time lag associated with traditional settlement processes, which can take days. It minimizes counterparty risk and improves capital efficiency. This speed is a notable characteristic of many digital asset systems.
