Furthermore, supporters think blockchain gilts will enable the <strong>United Kingdom<\/strong> to keep its competitive edge in the fast-changing digital asset scene.<\/p>\n<p>Siddiq&#8217;s drive arises from a need to make sure the <strong>United Kingdom <\/strong>adopts blockchain technology not behind other countries.
