Nine Swiss financial institutions, including SIX and TWINT, have started coordinated testing of the CHFD stablecoin within a controlled sandbox to explore institutional automation, tokenized asset settlement, and programmable payments. The experimental phase aims to study practical blockchain use cases for Swiss franc-pegged digital currency, continuing through 2026 with public findings expected afterward.
