The SWIFT consortium, which runs the global interbank messaging network, has struck a partnership with Chainlink, which provides price feeds and other data to blockchains, to develop a new cross-chain interoperability protocol. Jonathan Ehrenfeld Solé, SWIFT’s strategy director, says institutional investors have "undeniable interest" in crypto. At the top of this edition of Real Vision Crypto Daily Briefing, Ash Bennington and Marco Olivera discuss the significance of the move. Ash and Marco also talk about a new report on Bitcoin's energy use (it's not what you think it is) and the United Arab Emirates establishing a Ministry of Economy headquarters in the metaverse. Plus, Ash and Marco break down recent crypto price action with technical analyst Rekt Capital, focusing on what historical patterns tell us about future moves. Stay tuned to the end for an exciting announcement about changes coming to Crypto Daily Briefing.
