   JPMorgan Expands JPM Coin Deposit Token to Ethereum Mainnet

   JPMorgan Chase & Co. has deployed its USD-denominated deposit token, JPM Coin, on the Ethereum mainnet for institutional clients. The token, backed by dollar deposits and managed through Kinexys by J.P. Morgan, is designed to let approved institutional users transfer tokenized dollar deposits and settle financial transactions on public blockchain networks. The bank explicitly states that the deposit token is distinct from a stablecoin. The expansion gives institutional clients access to onchain cash across two public blockchains, following previous deployment on Coinbase-linked layer-2 network Base.

   Why it matters

   This rollout extends JPMorgan's push into blockchain payments, reflecting growing comfort among traditional Wall Street institutions with moving money on public networks. Ethereum was chosen due to its established depth of onchain liquidity and tokenized assets. The bank has also indicated plans to add Canton Network next.
