U.S. neobank Cogni today debuted its noncustodial wallet. Founded in 2018, in the Barclays' accelerator program, Cogni has refocused on web3, following in the footsteps of Revolut, N26 and Step.
Currently, Cogni's wallet acts as a shell that allows users to simply hold, send and receive crypto, but a forthcoming partnership with an as-yet-unnamed exchange will let users purchase crypto in-app.
Neobanks have so far largely sought to build out crypto investment tools via custodial solutions provided by third-party crypto service providers. Cogni's wallet, which is integrated with a bank account, will connect directly to an exchange which allows them to provide institutional rates to regular customers.
Unlike other fintech companies, Cogni's wallet is built alongside its preexisting banking services in the app. This means that users can view everyday transactions and bills — ticket purchases, grocery bills and paychecks — alongside on-chain transactions in one interface.
The startup is also looking to dive deeper into NFTs with an integration that will be rolled out after the wallet's launch. There are plans in the pipeline to enable NFT-based profile pictures.
In April, Cogni raised a $23 million Series A led by Korean firm Hanwha Asset Management and CaplinFO. The wallet will launch from the outset as a multi-chain solution and look to expand into new layer-one networks such as Aptos in the coming months.

Cannabis dispensaries across the U.S. are rushing to find alternative ways for customers to pay after networks that supported a popular workaround to the banking system began to shut down.
Cashless ATMs, also called “point of banking” systems, allowed cannabis buyers to use a bank card instead of cash. The method had evolved to get around the fact that credit-card companies and banks don’t want involvement in still federally illegal marijuana transactions.
Now the system is faltering because some of the largest processors of ATM transactions, have turned off the ability of processors to use their service.
Small dispensaries in Arizona, California and Massachusetts have all experienced outages, according to employees who were recommending that customers use cash.
Large dispensary chains of multi-state operators were also said to be affected.
Customers’ preference for the convenience of cashless-ATM-style systems had generated hundreds of millions of dollars in fees for little-known payment processors.
The crackdown on cashless ATMs comes exactly a year after Visa had said it was “aware of a scheme” involving cashless ATMs and that such transactions are prohibited on its network. While there are alternative payment technologies that are more compliant, some dispensaries see them as burdensome, and clunky for customers.

Singapore’s DBS Bank announced it had executed its first intraday repo transaction using JP Morgan’s Onyx Digital Assets network powered by blockchain.
Banks use repurchase agreements, aka repos for short term funding by selling securities such as U.S. Treasuries, and agreeing to repurchase them later.
Repos are a massive market with more than $4 Trillion in U.S. dollar repos outstanding at any one time.
Since repos are intended for short term funding, the drawback is that settlement usually takes two days.
Distributed ledger technology (DLT), with its instant settlement or delivery versus payment (DvP), makes it practical to have repo transactions that span a few hours rather than a day or more.
Andrew Ng, Head of Treasury and Markets at DBS, said that for repos, “infrastructural and technical inefficiencies meant the minimum term has usually been one day.
In the case of Onyx Digital Assets, in addition to tokenizing the repo security, the DLT repo solution also uses JPM Coin its blockchain-based bank account, to enable instant settlement.
DBS Bank is the first Asian bank to use the repo solution. Other announced participants include Goldman Sachs and BNP Paribus.
When BNP joined in May, cumulative transactions had reached $300 billion since the December 2020 launch.
This is the first time that J.P. Morgan is acting as both Triparty Agent and Collateral Token Agent, which is an exciting development for the market,” said Ed Bond, Head of Trading Services, Asia Pacific at J.P. Morgan.
