Payward 24/7 结算网络运作机制解析

TLDR(核心摘要):

  • Payward 通过 SGB Net 向选定的机构客户提供全天候即时结算服务。
  • 该服务初期支持美元交易,覆盖亚洲及海湾地区的部分市场。
  • SGB Net 目前每月处理的法定货币交易量已超过 200 亿美元。
  • SGB 将使用 Kraken Prime 为其客户获取数字资产流动性和定价支持。

Payward 银行扩张:连接结算与流动性

Payward(Kraken 的母公司)已与新加坡海湾银行(Singapore Gulf Bank,简称 SGB)达成战略合作,旨在为亚洲及海湾地区选定市场的机构级数字资产客户提供 24/7 即时结算服务。此次合作将 Payward 接入 SGB 的实时多币种清算网络——SGB Net。该服务初期将支持美元交易,面向特定客户群体,未来计划扩展至更多客户和货币种类。

Payward 24/7 结算网络如何运作

SGB Net 允许机构客户在银行账户与数字资产基础设施之间转移资金,无需等待传统银行的截止时间。历史上,银行结算通常遵循工作时间及固定的处理窗口,而数字资产市场则全年无休、持续运行。

Under the new arrangement, SGB customers can deposit funds with Payward and deploy them immediately. This will significantly reduce the delay between account capital injection and access to digital asset markets. The initial launch covers U.S. dollar transactions for selected customers in selected jurisdictions in Asia and the Gulf. Payward and SGB plan to gradually expand their services over time.

SGB Net will be launched in 2025 and mainly serves digital asset companies with increasing operational needs. According to companies from both parties, the network currently handles more than US$20 billion in fiat currency transactions per month.

In addition, the partnership connects SGB with Payward's full-service master broker platform Kraken Prime. SGB will leverage Kraken Prime as an additional source of liquidity and pricing for digital assets for its customers.

Payward Bank Expansion: Connecting Settlement and Liquidity

This cooperation is part of Payward's efforts to strengthen institutional client banking infrastructure. Payward Banking serves as the "funding layer" of the platform, supporting services such as deposits, payments, bank cards, custody and lending. The introduction of regulated banking partners helps connect traditional financial services to the continuously functioning digital asset market.

For institutional traders, the key change lies in the timing of capital flows. Faster settlement speeds allow eligible customers to fund digital asset activities without having to wait for the next bank window.

SGB is regulated by the Central Bank of Bahrain and supported by Bahrain's sovereign wealth fund Mumtalakat and Singapore Whampoa Group. Shawn Chan, CEO of SGB, said liquidity is more valuable when customers are able to transfer funds on demand. As a result, this cooperation combines two important parts of institutional crypto infrastructure: access to liquidity and access to settlement.

For traders and institutions, current direct offers are still limited to selected clients and U.S. dollar transactions. Its broader significance depends on whether Payward can expand access in more jurisdictions and currencies.

SGB Net is responsible for real-time fiat clearing, while Kraken Prime provides market access for digital assets. The combined infrastructure of the two will bring bank settlement closer to the continuous operation of the cryptocurrency market.
