  • US Banks to Launch Tokenized Deposit Network to Rival Stablecoins by 2027
    June 7, 2026, 9:39 AM EDT. Major U.S. banks including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, and Citigroup announced plans to launch a shared tokenized deposit network through The Clearing House by mid-2027. This initiative aims to enable bank deposits to move on blockchain infrastructures, facilitating 24/7 settlement and mimicking stablecoins' digital cash features. Stablecoins like Circle's USDC and Tether's USDT currently dominate onchain cash markets, used widely in crypto trading and payments. The new network allows banks to retain deposit control while addressing inefficiencies in cross-border transactions. Experts see this as a significant move toward mainstream blockchain adoption, although the network will remain a private system unlike public blockchains where stablecoins operate. The development signals heightened competition between traditional banks and crypto firms in defining the future of digital cash.
