JPMorgan Chase, the world’s largest bank, has introduced JPMD, a deposit-based stablecoin deployed on the Base blockchain, an Ethereum Layer 2 network developed by Coinbase. Unlike traditional stablecoins, JPMD is a tokenized deposit backed by customer accounts, initially targeting institutional clients through a pilot program on JPMorgan’s Kinexys blockchain platform, which already processes $1.5 trillion in transactions. The move, marked by a trademark filing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, positions [JPMD as a competitor to existing stablecoins like USDC](https://inleo.io/@taskmaster4450/jpmorgan-issuing-jpmd-stablecoin-jnx), to enhance real-time, multicurrency payment solutions. Industry experts view this as a significant step by traditional finance (TradFi) giants to integrate blockchain technology.
