The UK has published an update to its retail payments blueprint, highlighting the importance of infrastructure that supports tokenization and interoperability with new forms of digital money. This move indicates a strategic focus on integrating digital assets into the existing financial system, potentially paving the way for broader adoption of tokenized payments.
