Small business loan online marketplace Marketlend has created a new digital currency - called Black, which it said would create a secondary market for its corporate loans by facilitating a process of "tokenisation" of assets over blockchain.
Marketlend will launch Black as a pilot project this week, giving 26 investors in one of the loans issued over its platform a digital wallet to hold their digital currency.
