JPMorgan, Citigroup, and other major banks plan to jointly launch a tokenized deposit network next year to compete against stablecoin competition

According to The Wall Street Journal, several large banks in the United States plan to launch a tokenized deposit network next year, aimed at addressing the threat posed by stablecoins and cryptocurrency companies that have accelerated their penetration into traditional banking with the support of the Trump administration.

The network will connect traditional payment rails with digital asset infrastructure, operated by the real-time payment network company Clearing House, which is jointly owned by several major banks, including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo.
