Metro.co.uk notes that the government is exploring the possibility of creating a new digital currency that Treasury chief Rishi Sunak touted as ‘Britcoin.’

Yesterday, the Bank of England and the Treasury revealed their joint effort to evaluate the advantages of a central bank digital currency. This initiative is in response to the decrease in cash transactions, which is partly due to the Covid pandemic.

This is something that is clearly required in the light of the FTX collapse, according to the latest reports coming from the online publication Blockworks.

The same reports note the fact that there are solid regulations for the crypto industry that bring forth opportunities. This is a fact that is recognized by the UK Treasury.
