How does it compare to Zelle (Early Warning Systems) from an integration and cost perspective for financial partners?
Personally, I’d rather the Fed run real time payments instead of some private consortium made up of the largest US banks (some governance/overnight vs less so as a private corporation), but the Fed’s been dragging their feet for years while Zelle has rolled out quickly. Humorously, Facebook’s Libra is what set a fire under the Fed [1] [2].
