Funds and securities transfers.
Atomic settlements allow simultaneous and irreversible transfers of assets or funds between parties.
The concept is that either the entire transaction succeeds or fails as a single, indivisible unit, reducing the risks of partial or incomplete transactions.
"Atomic settlements seek to remove the use of intermediaries in transactions and would not require disclosing the transaction on a public blockchain, increasing privacy.
While this may be favourable for users, it is likely to spark regulatory pushback to manage fraud and money laundering."
