The coordination between competing banks and focus on early-stage infrastructure reveals a systematic approach to rebuilding the global financial architecture, rather than previous isolated blockchain experiments.

📰 What Happened
A new Ripple report analyzing 1,800 banks from 2020-2024 reveals major Wall Street institutions are aggressively investing in blockchain technology. Citigroup and Goldman Sachs each led with 18 investment deals, while JPMorgan Chase and Mitsubishi UFJ followed with 15 each. The study documented 345 total blockchain investments by global banks, including 33 mega-rounds. Global systemically important banks (G-SIBs) focused on institutional trading, tokenization infrastructure, and digital asset custody solutions.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The concentration of blockchain investments by the world's most powerful banks (33 mega-rounds) directly enables the infrastructure for a unified economic system prophesied in Revelation 13. JPMorgan's Kinexys platform testing tokenized US Treasuries demonstrates how quickly traditional financial instruments are being digitized. The focus on institutional trading and custody solutions by Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and others (36 combined deals) shows how rapidly control is consolidating among major financial powers - precisely the centralization needed for prophetic economic control scenarios.
