đš BREAKING: SWIFT Chooses Ethereum L2 Linea â NOT XRP â for Its 2025 Global Payments Pilot đâĄ
The crypto market just got shaken today.
SWIFT has officially selected Consensysâ Ethereum Layer-2 Linea for its major 2025 cross-border payments pilot â and XRP didnât make the list.
More than 30+ global banks â including JPMorgan, HSBC, BNP Paribas, Standard Chartered, and Citi â are participating. This is now the largest institutional test of any Ethereum L2 in history. đŒđ„
đ„ What This Means
đ Ethereum L2 is becoming the default choice
Traditional finance isnât just exploring blockchain anymore â theyâre directly building on ETH technology.
â XRP left out
No XRP integration. No RippleNet testing. Institutions are clearly prioritizing L2 infrastructures over legacy cross-border solutions.
⥠A new phase for global payments
If the pilot succeeds, cross-border settlements could shift to fast, low-cost rails powered by Ethereum tech.
đĄ Why Linea Was Picked
Linea offers: đ High throughput
đž Very low fees
đ Ethereum-level security
đ Smooth bank-friendly integration
SWIFT choosing Linea shows strong trust in Ethereumâs future as a global settlement layer.
đ A Major Turning Point
This pilot is more than a test â it could mark the start of a new financial era where Ethereum L2 networks support international value transfer.
