Bahrain's National Bank and Partior to explore blockchain settlement in dinars

  • —NBB and Partior signed an MoU on blockchain-based dinar settlement
  • —They will assess the operating model and implementation requirements
  • —They will evaluate whether NBB can act as settlement bank for the dinar
  • —Partior is a Singapore-based blockchain network for bank settlements
Why it matters: Another national bank is exploring blockchain settlement in its own currency, extending the tokenization trend in interbank payments.
