Picture this: no more midnight hunts for a forgotten password or awkward attempts at remembering a PIN that looks eerily like your favourite brand of soap. Zengo promises a wallet so simple it might just make Liza, the perpetually perplexed protagonist in a Fielding novel, wish she’d found this before the diet ration crisis. And for eToro, it’s the same sort of win that turns a dull investment doodle into a dazzling montage of digital assets.

According to a company statement dropped like a hot potato on Wednesday, this partnership is all about integrating Ripple Custody to manage the digital holding, transfer, and settlement of these rather important assets. It’s a brave new world out there, folks, as they attempt to transition from the traditional, sleep-inducing ways of bond processing to a spiffy blockchain-based infrastructure. By doing so, they hope to shrink the standard two-day settlement period into the blink of an eye. Well, that sounds easy enough!
