On chain FX refers to foreign exchange transactions executed and settled directly on a blockchain network. This process utilizes smart contracts to facilitate the exchange of different digital assets or tokenized fiat currencies. It offers enhanced transparency, reduced counterparty risk, and potentially faster settlement times compared to traditional FX markets.
