Japan’s Mitsubishi Financial Group latest firm to adopt Blockchain

Colleagues, payment speed increase and OPEX reduction once again are the business drivers behind Japan’s largest bank to adopt Blockchain. Sounds familiar. MUFG in partnership with Akamai expect it to process over a million transactions per second with less latencies of less than two seconds per transaction and ultimately with underlying Blockchain architecture that is “expected to be extensible to 10 million transactions per second.” By comparison, when Bitcoin backed by the world’s first Blockchain can process seven transactions per second with latencies exceeding 10 minutes. Read the joint May 21, 2018 announcement by clicking here. This action comes just months after MUFG announces plans to issue its own yen-backed cryptocurrency in January of this year. The Cryptocurrency Academy is not surprised by this move. Moreover, we predict a veritable tsunami of cryptocurrency related Blockchain initiatives from major financial institutions across North America, Asia and Europe in the coming months.
