Boston Fed, MIT, and Project Hamilton: taking the paper out of global trade

Here the focus is Boston Fed, MIT, and Project Hamilton, which move trade paperwork onto digital rails. It is concrete and sourced rather than a broad assertion.

The Paperwork Layer

This material links the ecosystem to trade documents and paperless-commerce standards. The primary source is the MIT DCI Project Hamilton page, with supporting material from the Boston Fed completion release and the Boston Fed Phase 1 executive summary.

The Takeaway For Market Infrastructure

This strengthens the broader institutional payments and tokenization stack because trade finance needs trusted records and interoperable workflows, giving distributed-ledger systems a practical role beyond speculation. The broader research trail also includes the Boston Fed Project Hamilton Phase 1 whitepaper PDF and the OpenCBDC transaction processor GitHub.

One caveat for honest use: Do not attach XRP/Ripple to Project Hamilton.
