Armstrong described the differences between traditional systems and newer blockchain networks:

“When something is happening on the SWIFT system, it’s always got to come in on the back end and do all the work.”

**“When something is happening on the SWIFT system, it’s always got to come in on the back end and do all the work.”**He also highlighted that the conventional international payments may take between five to seven days to be processed. However, XRP transactions could be concluded in 30 seconds. Armstrong made a comparison of XRP with the SWIFT network. He called Bitcoin and XRP networks of value and the SWIFT system a network of information. The discussion is issued when President Trump has already expressed his public support of cryptocurrency innovation.
