Botin discussed the point and stated that for the past two years, one banking system has been trialing the service among UK staff, and the process has been perfect. Further, even though blockchain is often considered to be capacity limited, the service has no limitations due to the volumes available.
Additionally, the blockchain-based solution works in a safe and fully compliant manner. The system also conducts payments in a faster, more cost-effective, efficient, safe, and secure manner. Given that the bank plans to implement the technology into several markets within the coming year shows that Santander is meeting its expectations.
The news is also beneficial for Ripple because it may boost the company and its cryptocurrency’s market cap. Japanese fintech company SBI Holdings recently publicly launched an application based on Ripple’s technology called MoneyTap, which enables mobile payments. The app providers for easier, cheaper, faster, and more flexible bank transfers.
