Good Evening Dinar Recaps,

IF TOKENIZED DEPOSITS DON’T PROGRESS, BANK OF ENGLAND LIKELY TO LAUNCH CBDC

During a speech on Saturday, Andrew Bailey the Governor of the Bank of Englanddiscussed the importance of central bank money for both wholesale and retail payments

He argued that the role of central bank money is particularly important for wholesale high value payments and the settlement of payment systemsHence, the Bank wants to enable digital innovation in the wholesale sector.

In July the Bank published a discussion paper on wholesale money, highlighting likely trials for both wholesale CBDC and an RTGS synchronization solution.

However, for retail paymentsGovernor Bailey thinks the Bank of England should be indifferent to whether payments use central bank money such as a retail CBDC or commercial bank money.

He’s quite keen to maintain the status quo in that most retail payments are in commercial bank money. Doing so doesn’t interfere with fractional reserve banking and the availability of credit in the economy. Regarding digital innovation such as tokenized deposits, he thinks commercial banks are where this should happen.

However, he added, “If for some reason innovation is unlikely to happen, then the central banks have to decide whether they are the only game in town. For me, this justifies why we must continue to prepare for retail CBDC. We have not yet seen enough evidence that the innovation will happen in commercial banks.”

Governor Bailey noted that on occasion, infrastructures and technologies have failed to incentivize innovation. Sometimes that relates to the concentration of market power. Hence the ongoing exploration of CBDC. “That is not my preferred outcome, but not one that we should rule out.”

Tokenized deposits trials
Meanwhile, the UK banking sector has been exploring tokenized deposits as part of the Regulated Liability Network. In September it said the next step was to engage with regulators.

The speech comes across as a ‘giddy up’, and is not the first time the Bank has made such comments. In April Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden outlined a potential scenario where bank innovation is slow, unsuccessful or fragmented.

Fragmentation has been a feature of digital securities, but for tokenized deposits, slightly less so. Some banks purely support tokenized deposits for their own clients. But there are many multi-bank projects.

Ledger Insights Research mapped more than 70 tokenized deposit, stablecoin and other DLT payment initiatives. At least 18 are multi-bank, without counting cross border payment initiatives.

HBAR ADOPTION EXPANDS AS DUBAI LAUNCHES DIGITAL WILL SOLUTION ON HEDERA

▪️Unlike traditional wills that manage physical assets, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera for its reliability, security, speed, and trust, ensuring a transparent process.

▪️This initiative underscores Dubai’s strategic approach to establishing a sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulatory framework
.

The Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) announced its integration of Hedera’s Hashgraph technology which will power a new Digital Asset Will inheritance solution.

This initiative is distinct from the traditional FinTech focuses like tokenized assets and payments.

Thus, it marks a unique application of distributed ledger technology (DLT) in estate planning, especially for digital asset inheritance.

Managing digital assets in inheritance is a new challenge, unlike conventional wills that distribute stocks, cash, and gold. As a result, the DIFC Courts have chosen Hedera’s technology for its reliability, security, speed, and, most importantly, trust.

 Moreover, the governing council of Hedera provides the DIFC and beneficiaries a complete peace of mind via a trusted, transparent process.

Some of the key features of Hedera like the Hedera Consensus Service (HCS), have played a crucial role in offering audit trails at every step along with accuracy. This helps to ensure the correct management of inheritances. For example, HCS’s real-time audit logs prevent mistakes in transferring assets, safeguarding beneficiaries from potential delays or errors.

The DIFC’s move highlights Dubai’s forward-thinking strategy in building sustainable digital asset infrastructure and regulation, setting a standard for digital asset planning. This collaboration is a win for both Hedera as a DLT leader and Dubai’s vision for long-term, responsible digital asset growth.

Key Developments in the Hedera Ecosystem
The Hedera ecosystem is currently seeing strong growth as several industry players are willing to transition to blockchain tech and prefer Hedera for its transparent governance and trust.

Earlier this month, investment firm Canary Capital announced the launch of the first HBAR Trust in the United States, reported CNF. This fueled further speculation around the potential introduction of a Hedera-focused Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).

The Canary HBAR Trust will provide safe access for investors to cryptocurrency HBAR while opening the gates for institutional participation in the crypto.

 Steven McClurg, CEO of Canary Capital, highlighted that the HBAR Trust is designed to provide U.S. institutional investors with new opportunities to tap into the growing demand for crypto-related products.

On the other handProve AI recently launched its artificial intelligence product on the Hedera blockchain allowing businesses to securely manage their AI training data while ensuring compliance by using Hedera’s secure and scalable infrastructure. 

Furthermore, Hedera will also provide governance solutions for businesses interacting with AI regulations and development, reported CNF.

In other news, Karate Combat, the world’s premier professional strike league, has announced the upcoming launch of its Layer-2 platform on the Hedera blockchain.

Named “UP,” this Layer-2 blockchain and crypto-native software licensing platform is set to go live in Q1 2025, aiming to propel Web3 adoption across esports, sports, and entertainment sectors, reported CNF.
