The UK Treasury has announced a series of initiatives dealing with digital currency in a landmark report published in conjunction with the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s annual budget speech today.
The announcement is the government’s first major attempt to grapple with the regulatory and consumer safety issues surrounding digital currencies.
The report is largely positive towards digital currencies, noting its potential as a payments technology, while also underlining its nascent state and the potential risks associated with its use.
