Global technology provider IBM (IBM) is pushing deeper into crypto assets with a new platform designed for banks, governments and large corporations that want to manage digital assets securely across multiple blockchains. The IBM Digital Asset Haven aims to offer custody, transaction routing and settlement across more than 40 public and private chains, the firm said in a Monday press release.
It will also include compliance tools like identity verification and anti-money laundering (AML) checks, integrated through APIs and developer tools. The software-as-a-service (SaaS) version of the platform is expected to go live in the last quarter of this year, with broader support planned for Q2 2026. The move comes as more financial institutions and businesses explore incorporating stablecoins and tokenized real-world assets into their operations.
They do so to manage and move money and assets across borders cheaper, faster and with less friction compared to traditional banking rails. “With the adoption of tokenized assets and stablecoins increasing, institutions will need to evolve,” IBM said in the press release. “The digital asset space presents a critical opportunity for financial institutions modernizing their product portfolios.”
