What we created
Here is an overview of the Minka Ledger system we set up
After following all the steps we now have a functioning Clearinghouse Ledger system that is capable of issuing and transferring balances across the internet.
Ledger
Our first step was to model the clearinghouse through the ledger record.
Symbol
Then we modeled USD currency through the symbol record.
Wallet
We created wallets that model bank accounts that will be joining our real time payments system (RTP).
And we also created a settlement-wallet that is used when those banks want to withdraw their currencies from the Ledger system.
Intents
Issuance, transfer, and withdrawal of balances is managed through intents.
And we showcased each of these cases throughout this tutorial.
Access
Lastly, we explained how security works inside the Minka Ledger system.
We secured our ledger by allowing only the owners of the wallet to see and move their balances.
Next steps
Now that we have a clearinghouse RTP system in place, we want to allow the banks to join this system:
After that, we need to make sure this system can interact with the outside world.
This includes internal clearinghouse software and databases.
The same goes for the banks that join the RTP system - they need a connection between their internal systems and the Ledger.
We call this connection "The Bridge":
