Avalanche Powers New $9 Trillion Digital Liquidity Gateway by FIS Global and Intain

The post Avalanche Powers New $9 Trillicom. FIS and Intain Markets introduced the Digital Liquidity Gateway, a blockchain-based platform built on the Avalanche network. Avalanche was selected because it supports high throughput, low-latency finality, and custom networks for institutional use. FIS Global, one of the largest fintech service providers, and Intain Markets have announced the launch of the Digital Liquidity Gateway, a marketplace built on the Avalanche blockchain. According to Avalanche’s X post, FIS has processed more than US$9 trillion annually, and Intain has administered loan portfolios totaling US$6 billion and specializes in tokenizing real-world assets. The Gateway is aimed primarily at empowering roughly 2, 000 regional and community banks in the United States to enable them to access institutional-grade liquidity in ways previously available only to large banks. John Wu, President of Ava Labs, stated: When we give institutions more efficient access to capital markets, they can make more loans, offer better rates, and provide more credit to underserved communities. This collaboration highlights how Avalanche’s blockchain technology is modernizing real-world finance, helping community banks expand credit access and strengthen local economies, What the Digital Liquidity Gateway Does The official press release explains that banks have traditionally struggled to access capital markets, but the Digital Liquidity Gateway will remove these barriers by integrating with FIS core systems. The Gateway will leverage AI to automate manual processes and record transactions on-chain for instant verification and programmable settlement. Built on Intain’s AvaCloud Layer-1 solution on Avalanche, the platform accelerates bank capital deployment and increases the flow of real-world assets (RWAs) while enabling institutional participation. Banks can tokenize loan portfolios, such as small business loans or commercial real estate, and pool them for sale or securitization, with hundreds of millions of dollars in transactions anticipated by year-end. In a recent update, CNF explained that Avalanche is powered by its Avalanche Consensus.
