djdhrubs 2,428 Posted December 4, 2018 For some reason the volume is so low even at maximum I can't clearly hear what he's saying. But wasn't Amex confirmed as an xCurrent user ages and ages ago? Or is this xRapid related? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Uloveme 106 Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) I think this is what they are saying: Quote Blockchain is absolutely an option we are looking at, to give you a sense: we have invested in a fintech lab based on blockchain technology, just to understand how to leverage these better. We did a pilot/test partnering with Santander locally and with Ripple to just do cross-border transactions because cross-border transactions continue to be complex and slow. And in a matter of seconds through this test our clients were able to transfer funds in a very transparent seamless way from one part of the world to the other. Interviewer: Interesting. The disruption has been more for the banking rails right? Exactly. So more to come, there is still a lot of things that need to get addressed with blockchain as a technology but it is very promising. Personally I think it is also quite funny that he explains how they are partnering up with many fintech start-ups "because in these days and age where we as a company huge investments every year in technology just to keep going. There are companies who can do the emerging technology faster and in a more inexpensive way than us, and we need to partner with them." Swift is in a similar situation but seems to be missing the boat, not embracing the future because of ignorance will result in defeat.

It's really encouraging to hear an employee of Amex saying that the tests were very positive and that they will continue. Amex mentioning that Ripple technology enables them to move funds within seconds from one part of the world to another part of the world is really awesome. It's not clear to me at this point what Ripple product/products have been tested.

Nohut 125 Posted December 4, 2018 They started with xCurrent. I dont think this is xRapid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NMNR 157 Posted December 4, 2018 I'm sure it's xCurrent. BAML's Pilot and Product Rollout (which is only xCurrent atm) is largely going to involve American Express if i'm right in putting two and two together. 1 Rey reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It won’t be xRqpid anywhere before corridors are set in both ends; sending and receiving. Exchanges that are used need to have prefunded their accounts in all banks that are related to allow the settlement flow seamlessly before liquidity can be directed through them. 3 aavkk, Paulo and hallwaymonitor reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well unless I'm mistaken it doesn't matter whether it's xRapid or xCurrent, both can now use XRP. 4 Babelly, XRPonTheIronThrone, Cesar1810 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The functionality you're referring to is only included in a recent version of xCurrent. I don't think that Amex has tested that version yet (apart from all the additional organizational and regulatory implications that using that functionality probably would bring to the table).

Usage of XRP in between makes xCurrent xRapid, no other difference. 1 Cesar1810 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
