JPMorgan Chase[3]’s JPM Coin digital currency is now being used commercially for cross-border payments by “a large international technology company”, the US banking giant’s Takis Georgakopoulos has told CNBC[4].

The development comes as the bank also launches Onyx[5], a new division to handle its blockchain and digital currency initiatives.

“We are launching Onyx because we believe we are shifting to a period of commercialisation of those technologies, moving from research and development to something that can become a real business,” Georgakopoulos told the news channel.
