    "We expect that the evolution of payment infrastructure will accelerate. All actors are grappling with what is at stake. For governments and central banks, regulating this transformation will be a prerequisite to avoiding a possible privatization of monetary policy, and for banks and other financial services providers, keeping up with evolving customer preferences and further adjusting the pricing of payments and transfers appears unavoidable."

    Through Elipay, merchants can accept Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin, Ether and ELI tokens (its native currency) via a platform that can be integrated into their existing infrastructure. Settlements occur immediately - and the company claims its technology eliminates the delays seen when credit card payments are being cleared. To address concerns over volatility, businesses that accept digital currencies can opt to receive revenue in their local currency, meaning no in-depth crypto knowledge is required.

    "By visiting this Mexico City bar, I was struck by how little things have changed since I started covering the technology in 2011. Over the last eight years, the bitcoin community-and bitcoin's price-has grown by orders of magnitude. The bitcoin economy has much more sophisticated infrastructure for storing and trading bitcoins. But practical applications for bitcoin-beyond trading it, holding it, and hoping to get rich-seem almost as elusive today as they were eight years ago."

    The US has several private real-time networks offered by payments providers and big banks. But the Fed says these alternatives have important limitations, like the lack of a universal infrastructure. "Most of these services rely on 'closed-loop' approaches, meaning that users signed up to one service cannot exchange payments with users signed up to other services," the Fed statement noted.

    Ms. Brainard says the Fed must develop its own system because "no single private-sector provider of any U.S. payment system has ever achieved nationwide reach on its own." Perhaps that is because the Fed has undercut private systems with its regulatory and infrastructure advantage, as the Government Accountability Office reported in 2016.

    FX Derivatives (FXD) participants face a tricky choice across a patchwork of clearing and uncleared optimization techniques, trading off funding and capital usage with infrastructure spend and operational risk. In earlier posts, we showed you how FX IM optimization via NDFs and FX Options clearing developed in Q1 2019.  Here I update the volumes for Q2 2019 and set the trends alongside other emerging techniques in FXD counterparty risk reduction.
