There are far better global ledger approaches than blockchain.
I believe you, but can you name one so we can all learn more about the alternatives out there?
SWIFT is the easy one. Fun fact they looked into blockchain at one point and went "yeah, nah"
I thought Swift is currently Block-Chain based. Do you mean this Swift?
I meant the true and proper SWIFT that is used by almost all financial institutions for transferring funds.
