The New York Federal Reserve has reported successful results from a three-month experiment with major banks using centralized blockchain payments to address issues in the settlement process. The experiment used a regulated liability network (RLN) to create a theoretical payment infrastructure. Participating banks included Wells Fargo, BNY Mellon, Citi, HSBC, and Mastercard, with Swift also collaborating. The NY Fed has not yet established plans to expand or continue development of the RLN network.
