Overview

Lloyds is moving tokenisation from concept to execution. In parallel with a public statement that it has completed a tokenised-deposit digital-asset transaction, the bank’s CEO is publicly framing “deposit tokenization” and smart contracts as tools that could simplify how customers use accounts and reduce friction in the UK’s slow home-buying workflow.
