Sumitomo Mitsui金融集團計劃推出自己的Stablecoin

根據Nikkei於2025年4月1日發布的一份報告，Stablecoin項目將是銀行業巨頭和加密貨幣項目雪崩（Avax）（Avax）和Fireblocks之間的合作。

As the parent company of Japan’s second-largest bank, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, plans to launch its own stablecoin.

作為日本第二大銀行的母公司Sumitomo Mitsui銀行公司，計劃啟動自己的Stablecoin。

The project will see the banking giant join forces with crypto projects Avalanche (AVAX) and Fireblocks for the new stablecoin, local outlet Nikkei reports.

該項目將看到銀行巨頭與加密項目雪崩（Avax）和Fireblocks聯合起來，並為新的Stablecoin提供了Nikkei的報導。

The publication adds that the project will also involve Ava Labs, the developer team behind the Avalanche blockchain.

該出版物補充說，該項目還將涉及雪崩區塊鏈背後的開發人員Ava Labs。

SMBC’s reported stablecoin venture follows a prior move in 2024 that saw the financial services and banking firm team up with two other Japanese institutions – Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Mizuho Financial Group. The partners were said to be eying a pilot for a cross-border stablecoin transfer venture, set to involve Progmat and Datachain.

SMBC報導的Stablecoin Venture在2024年的先前舉動之後，金融服務公司和銀行公司與其他兩個日本機構 - 三菱UFJ金融集團和Mizuho Financial Group合作。據說這些合作夥伴正在註視著一名跨境Stablecoin轉移企業的飛行員，該公司涉及Progmat和Datachain。

In the latest report, Nikkei says SMBC will also join forces with Japan-based information technology firm TIS. The partnership will aim to conduct trials for the new stablecoin project in the fourth quarter of 2025 or early 2026. If successful, live issuance will follow later in the year.

Nikkei在最新報告中說，SMBC還將與日本信息技術公司TIS聯手。該合作夥伴關係將旨在在2025年第四季度或2026年初對新Stablecoin項目進行試驗。如果成功，現場發行將在今年晚些時候進行。

Like other banks turning to stablecoins for improved functionality and instant money transfers, SMBC is no stranger to the blockchain space.

就像其他銀行轉向穩定的銀行以提高功能和即時匯款一樣，SMBC對區塊鏈空間並不陌生。

In February 2019, the bank’s tech team completed a blockchain proof of concept for payment commitments on Marco Polo trade finance, a platform developed by R3. SMBC was part of a consortium that also included Commerzbank, BNP Paribas, Anglo-Gulf Trade Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, and Danske Bank.

2019年2月，該銀行的科技團隊完成了區塊鏈概念驗證，以付給R3的平台Marco Polo Trade Finance的付款承諾。 SMBC是一個財團的一部分，其中還包括Commerzbank，BNP Paribas，Anglo-Gulf貿易銀行，標準特許銀行和Danske Bank。

Following the R3 Marco Polo trade initiative, SMBC furthered its footprint in the blockchain ecosystem with another deal. It sought to digitize its trade finance offering with a blockchain touch, this time joining hands with Singapore-based Contour in July 2020.

在R3 Marco Polo貿易計劃之後，SMBC通過另一筆交易在區塊鏈生態系統中進一步擴大了其足跡。它試圖通過區塊鏈觸摸將其貿易融資產品數字化，這次是在2020年7月與新加坡輪廓攜手的。

These efforts have now evolved into stablecoin development, an area that is drawing interest across the financial services industry, including from JPMorgan and Citi, which have made major inroads using permissioned blockchains.

這些努力現已發展成為Stablecoin開發項目，該領域吸引了整個金融服務行業的興趣，包括摩根大通和花旗，這些地區使用許可的區塊鏈促成了重大侵略。
