The financial world is currently fixated on tokenisation. From “Tokenised Money: Use Cases, Interoperability and Regulation” the 2026 research of the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance, Cambridge Judge Business School to the passage of the GENIUS Act in the United States, the narrative is clear: digitising money is the next evolutionary leap.
