Positive news that pushed Bitcoin prices up came from JPMorgan, the largest bank in the US, which is developing a blockchain-based token for international payments and settlements.

According to a Bloomberg report, a person familiar with the matter said that the largest US bank, JPMorgan Chase & Co., is considering launching a new type of digital currency that could speed up international payments and settlements.

The person, who did not want to be named because the project is still in its early stages, said the bank is investigating the use of a blockchain-based deposit token that would act as a transferable digital currency representing a deposit claim against the project.
