The project was announced in a speech<\/a> by John Glen, the Economic Secretary to the Treasury, who said at a summit that more details on the mint\u2019s mint would be coming \u201cvery soon.\u201d<\/p>\n While countries like Ukraine have issued NFTs before<\/a>, this particular announcement feels a bit different \u2014 for one, it\u2019s coming from one of the highest levels of the British government. It\u2019s also supposed to be carried out by the entity in charge of printing the country\u2019s money.<\/p>\n That\u2019s not to say that UK citizens should expect the government to replace the pound with HerMajesty\u2019sCoin anytime soon. The announcement\u2019s complete lack of details makes it easy to see it as just a PR exercise \u2014 a way for the treasury to show that it really is serious about making the UK a hotbed of financial innovation and getting \u201cin on the ground floor\u201d with crypto (by, you know, announcing an NFT over a year after Taco Bell came out with its own crypto token<\/a>). <\/p>\n
