The popular technology stalwart IBM had just started the Digital Asset Haven, a new crypto-focused platform where all customers will be able to manage their portfolio across various blockchains.
Stellar Lumens Enters Fresh IBM Landscape
This includes Stellar (XLM), the OG altcoin that’s also compatible with the upcoming ISO 20022 international monetary standard. This expanded utility enables the usage of Stellar Lumens across 72 countries in a legally-compliant way, with the Layer-1 chain supporting 47 digital assets.
Per IBM’s official statement, the comprehensive platform will serve financial institutions, governments & corporations. Allowing them to stay regulatory compliant, the platform is built in a way to preserve sovereignty & account security.
IBM Fuels Next Wave Of Fintech Innovation
The Digital Asset Haven is built in partnership with Dfns, a popular digital wallet infrastructure provider in the United States (USA). “Our clients have the opportunity to enter and expand into the digital asset space backed by IBM’s level of security & reliability”, – noted IBM Z General Manager Tom McPherson.
IBM’s strong passion for holistic security & key management reflects in the platform’s support for Multi-Party Computation (MPC), as well as Hardware Security Module (HSM) powered transaction signing, accompanied by the IBM Crypto Express 8S HSMs-based signing.
Following the IBM news, Stellar Lumens (XLM) soared 1.5% to restore $0.33, inching closer to the weekly high. Within a trading volume of $203 million in a 24-hour period, XLM’s price is in a massively oversold position.
As the Stochastic Relative Strength Index (StochRSI) is hovering between 24 & 14, crypto whales are still distributing their positions on Monday evening. With the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) flashing -0.09, this hints at lacking buy power despite today’s IBM adoption news.
