Real-Time Value Transfer

Definition

Real-time value transfer denotes the immediate and irrevocable movement of funds or digital assets from one party to another, with settlement occurring instantaneously or within seconds. In blockchain systems, this is achieved through rapid block finality and efficient transaction processing, eliminating the delays common in traditional banking systems. This capability is a core advantage of many digital asset networks, facilitating instant global payments and financial operations. It removes the need for lengthy reconciliation processes.
