Digital Assets and Distributed Ledger Technology Digital Innovation

Digital assets, which include cryptocurrencies, stablecoins, tokenized assets (tokenization), and central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), and distributed ledger technology, which includes blockchain, are fundamentally reshaping U.S. and global business, companies, and transactions. As digital assets and distributed ledger technology use cases expand and adoption grows, companies across virtually every industry are being impacted by these nascent spheres. Those industries at the forefront of involvement include finance, banking, tech, AI, energy, climate change, media, telecom, marketing, supply chain and logistics, retail, healthcare, real estate, transportation, and manufacturing.
